This application is a slightly more advanced version of the basic node.js starter application provided by the IBM Cloud platform. It uses the express package to serve a web form from the /public directory. When the user clicks Submit on that page, app.js takes the data from the form and inserts it into a Cloudant database hosted in the IBM Cloud.
This app is designed to be run four different ways:
- As a standalone app running on your machine
- As a Cloud Foundry app running in the IBM Cloud
- In a Docker container running on your machine
- In a Kubernetes cluster running in the IBM Cloud
