1,341 PointsI am writing the code as said i.e res.render('main',{posts:"posts"});.
As per the question, we have to pass posts object whose values has to be posts only. I am doing the same but I am getting error.
const express = require('express');
const posts = require('./mock/posts.json');
const app = express();
app.set('view engine', 'pug');
app.set('views', __dirname + '/templates')
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.render('main',{posts:"posts"});
});
app.listen(3000, () => {
console.log("The frontend server is running on port 3000!");
});

The 'posts' variable is a required json file stored in a constant. All you need do is pass in 'posts' in object literals as the second argument of the 'render' method.
app.get('/', (req, res) => {
res.render('main',{posts});
});
