Writing Files with Node.js

Writing Files

Import fs module (native to Node, no need to install from NPM)
```
const fs = require('fs')
```

Write using fs and format JSON neatly (you don't even need to create the file beforehand)

try {
fs.writeFile('./data/output.json', JSON.stringify(<js obj array>, null, 4), (err) => {
    if (err) {
        console.error(err)
        return
    }
})
}
catch (e) {
console.error(e)
}
