Here is the css link I am using:
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/html" href="/public/assets/lib/css/style.css" />
Despite trying various solutions such as removing "rel="stylesheet"", changing to "text/html", checking paths, placing it in the public folder related to express, adding <base href="/">, and more, the styling still doesn't appear.
When I use text/css instead, I encounter MIME errors.
Below is my file path:
https://i.sstatic.net/kmcUV.png
app.js:
var express = require("express");
var app = express();
var request = require("request");
app.set("view engine", "ejs");
app.use(express.static(__dirname + '/public'));
app.get("/", function(req, res) {
res.render("search");
// res.render("location");

I'm unsure if there's something else I need to add here. Any insights would be appreciated.
