Create folowing folder structure in your project root:
All these files are optional.

```
projectRoot
--------------------------
+-- server
	+-- env
		+-- development.js		//Dev config
		+-- production.js		//Production config
	+-- database.js				//Database connections
	+-- express.js				//Express config and adons
	+-- init.js					//To be called when server was started
+-- routes
	+-- myRoutes.js				//Your routes
	+-- moreRoutes.js
```

##Start an express server

```
var server = new ExpressServer({
	name: 'My Express Server',
	port: 3000
});
```

##Setting up env configurations

```
module.exports = function(app, done) {
	'use strict';

	app.use(function(req, res, next){
		//Do something
		next();
	});

	done();
};
```

Don't forget to call the done function


##Connecting to a database

```
module.exports = function(app, done) {
	'use strict';

	//Make db connection

	done();
};
```

##Using express middlewares

```
module.exports = function(app, done) {
	'use strict';

	app.use(anyMiddleware);

	done();
};
```

##Init script

```
module.exports = function(app, done) {
	'use strict';

	//Doing something during server start progress

	done();
};
```

##Adding routes

Place routes under yourproject/routes/
All files in this folder will be called during the start progress


```
module.exports = function(app, done) {
	'use strict';

	app.get('/', function(req, res, next) {
		res.send('Hello World!');
		next();
	});

	done();
