Currently, I am following a tutorial video and trying to implement the code provided. This is the code snippet at the beginning of my routes/index.js file:
var todo = require('../todo'); //line 1
//line 2
//new session //line 3
exports.newSession = function (req, res) { //line 4
res.render('sessions/new', { //**line 5**
locals: {
redir: req.query.redir
}
});
};
After executing my app and activating the routes.newSession handler, I encountered an error:
500 SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier

I have reviewed my index.js file for syntax errors but couldn't find any. Should I be troubleshooting elsewhere?
Your input is appreciated!
In response to some suggestions, here is the content of my views/sessions/new.jade file:
h1 Login
form(action='/sessions', method='POST')
input(type='hidden', name='redir', value=redir)
p
label(for='login') Login:
input(type='text' name='login', id='login')
p
label(for='password') Password:
input(type='password' name='password', id='password')
p
input(type='submit')
I have made sure to replicate the instructions accurately.
Furthermore, I am utilizing a layout.jade file as well. Here is its content:
!!!
html
head
title Our ToDo App
link(rel='stylesheet', href='/stylesheets/style.css')
body!= body
Despite making adjustments in response to feedback, the error persists. Your ongoing support is greatly valued.
As per a suggestion, I have shared my app's folder and files at
The directory structure conforms to Express's default setup, which should aid in comprehension.
