SMS MANAGEMENT

This API creates an SMS Management API using Node.js.

Overview

The SMS Management system helps to send messages to a contact. Also, ensures the right contact gets the message.

Project Structure

The project structure follows the MVC (Model-View-Controller) pattern. You can think of the JSON representation of data returned by the API as the 'view'.
