Supposed you just created a barebones Express (or other framework) Node REST API.

What are the next steps you take to pimp It up? Request throttling? Security steps? Error logging (like sentry). Your endgame is a production ready basic API.

I’ve been developing a few CRUDs for small apps, but I never stopped to think about all these small details, let me hear your opnions!
