A basic HTTP server built using only core Node.js modules no external frameworks. It reads data from a JSON file and serves it through RESTful routes. A great starting point to understand how servers work under the hood with Node.js.

It stores data in a **JSON file** instead of a traditional database — perfect for small projects, prototyping, or learning Node.js fundamentals.
## 🔹 Features 🔹
✅ **Create** a new item
✅ **Read** all items or a single item by its title
✅ **Update** an item’s body by its title
✅ **Delete** an item by its title
✅ File-based persistence (JSON)
✅ Pure Node.js (without Express or additional libraries)
## 🔹 Installation 🔹
