a basic API to create a list of items. We store them in a MongoDB database using Mongoose and it will be for a single person.</p>
<p>Some possible uses:</p>
<ul>
<li>An actual TO-DO list. Some times you just need a simple list.</li>
<li>The beginning of Hacker News, Reddit, or similar. Those are basically four glorified CRUDs: users, stories, comments, votes.</li>
</ul>
<p>End product:</p>
