Tell us what’s happening:
I did pass the challenge however I cant get myself to understand how to use the

app.route(path).get(handler).post(handler)

as they mentioned in the note section below. I simply used app.get(…) and I was able to pass the challenge. But it says the writing the code in the second way(as mentioned in the note section:
“This syntax allows you to chain different verb handlers on the same path route. You can save a bit of typing, and have cleaner code.”

The ExpressJS documentation has an example of chaining HTTP method handlers.

I would highly recommend you refer to the official documentation (NodeJS, Express, MongoDB, Mongoose, etc.) for the backend challenges and projects. Only relying on the information given in the challenges is likely not going to cut it.
