Express REST API and MCP Server Framework is a comprehensive development framework for building RESTful APIs and an MCP servers with Express.js. It provides a complete template for creating production-ready APIs using Node.js, Express, Mongoose (MongoDB), and Sequelize (SQL databases).

This is a comprehensive development framework designed for building RESTful APIs with Express.js, providing a complete template for production-ready Node.js applications. It uniquely features a built-in MCP server, enabling seamless interaction between LLMs and your API through both traditional REST endpoints and Model Context Protocol tools and resources.
