Request Response Lifecycle
Definition
The Request-Response cycle is the journey of data from the moment a user clicks a button to the moment data appears on their screen. In Express, this involves the client sending an HTTP Request over the network, Express receiving it and packaging it into the `req` object, passing it through middleware, hitting the route controller, interacting with the database, packaging the data into the `res` object, and sending it back over the network.
