This project is a job search application built using Express.js and Node.js. The app fetches job listings and detailed job information from a third-party API and presents it in a user-friendly format through a simple web interface.

• Search for Jobs: Search for jobs using keywords, location, and employment type.
• Remote Job Filtering: Option to filter for remote jobs.
• Job Details Page: View detailed information about job listings, including company info, job description, and qualifications.
• Responsive Design: The app includes basic responsive design to work on various devices.
• Static Assets: Serves static files, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript from a public directory.

• Node.js: JavaScript runtime environment.
• Express.js: Web framework for Node.js.
• CORS: Middleware for enabling cross-origin requests.
• Node-Fetch: Used to make HTTP requests to the API.
• HTML/CSS: For the user interface.

Ensure you have Node.js and npm installed on your system.

The app fetches job data from the JSearch API using the node-fetch package. To run this app, a valid RapidAPI key is required.

• GET /: Serves the main search page.
• GET /search: Accepts query parameters (search, location, employment_type, page, remote_jobs_only) and returns job search results in HTML format.
• GET /jobs/:id: Retrieves and displays detailed job information based on the job ID.

To search for jobs:

GET /search?search=developer&location=New+York&employment_type=full-time&page=1&remote_jobs_only=true

• Modify index.js to adjust the logic or the display of job data.
• Edit the HTML and CSS files in the public directory to customize the UI.

• The app is set to run on port 3001 by default.
• Ensure the RAPID_API_KEY is set up correctly in the .env file or replace it in the code as needed.
• For better security, do not expose your API key in the source code.
