# API Routes
Nuxt will automatically read in any files in the `~/server/api` directory to create API endpoints.
Each file should export a default function that handles api requests. It can return a promise or JSON data directly or use `res.end()`. API routes are powered by [h3](https://github.com/unjs/h3).
**Example:** Hello world
```js [server/api/hello.ts]
export default async (req, res) => 'Hello World'
```
See result on http://localhost:3000/api/hello
**Example:** An async function
```js [server/api/async.ts]
import express from 'express'
export default async (req, res) => {
await someAsyncFunction()
return {
someData: true
}
}
```
**Example:** Using Node.js style
```js [server/api/node.ts]
export default async (req, res) => {
res.statusCode = 200
res.end('Works!')
}
```
