rohit-the-webdev/STPM-server — reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a simple JavaScript backend for a project called STPM-server. I don’t have a full spec yet, so keep it practical and easy to extend.

I want a working server that exposes clean API routes, returns clear JSON responses, and has a basic health check so I can confirm it’s running. It should support uploading files into an uploads area, handle common errors nicely, and be organized so more features can be added later without everything becoming messy. Add sensible setup for local development and make sure it can be deployed on Vercel using the existing project structure.

Please include any small helper code needed, basic validation, simple logging, and clear instructions in the README for installing, running, testing the API, and deploying. Don’t overcomplicate it with extra features I didn’t ask for. If you need current Vercel or JavaScript server docs, look them up online.
