regarding that node_module folder
actually i want to ask that , in that provided demo application ( the connect api quick start guide ) there is folder named node_module in that module there are so many subdivisions n codes n viewing each code seemed little bit tired type feeling since I'm just beginning this programming journey so i have one doubt that the given sub divisions are pre written code snippets that we can use where we want or that few of them are specifically designed for that demo application that is provided
(actually 18 yr old I'm , don't know early or late in this programming journey but i know coding n having a huge interest , so learning in progress in this free time before starting my college journey , kindly tell considering this )
THANKYOU

thankyou for recommending , but actually i have doubt regarding that node_module, after downloading that whole demo application code there is folder named node_module in that there are so many further parts n code snippets , and in that my doubt is that those given codes are pre-written code or that are particularly designed for that demo application
i hve already seen documentation n all the updates

The node_modules folder contains dependencies of a node.js project. It is normally created when you run “npm install” and does not contain any program specific code, just “code written by someone else” that is also used in the current project (= dependencies).

Hi there,
Node modules are a dependency for all node projects, so they would not be counted against the "code written by someone else". We will only judge code in the main source of the project, not required dependencies. Using 3rd party libraries is allowed!
Good luck.
