Please forgive my ignorance. This is such a basic question I'm almost too embarrassed to ask it, but perhaps it will help some other ignoramus down the line.
In my route:
router.get('/my-page'
, function (req, res) {
res.render('my-page', { title: 'some page' });
}
);
What is the title 'some page' for?
I don't think there's a HTTP Response title header, so i'm assuming it's not for that...
Does it simply set a default HTML title element, in case you don't add a title element in your HTML?
Which would imply that the route renderer checks if you added a title?
Is it necessary to include the { title: 'some page' }
Am I asking a question that I could probably get answered with 2 minutes of playing around. Yes.
Do I want you to link me to some NodeJS/express documentation? No.
Thanks <3

This is just a piece of data that you can use inside your HTML page however you like.
In your case, I assume you are using ejs
So you can open you ejs file and add
<%= title %>
Anywhere in your file and the title value that you passed will show!
So long story short, just a piece of data passed to your ejs file
