While working on an example website template, I encountered an error in the Chrome console:
Refused to apply style from 'http://localhost:3000/css/style.css' because its MIME type ('text/html') is not a supported stylesheet MIME type, and strict MIME checking is enabled.Every time I try to load the css/style.css page, I get a 404 error even though the path appears to be correct. Below is a snippet of the basic code for the website:
Node.js App:
var express = require('express');
var app = express();
var exphbs = require('express-handlebars');
var path = require('path');
app.engine('hbs', exphbs({extname:'hbs'}));
app.set('views', path.join(__dirname, 'views'));
app.set('view engine', 'hbs');
app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, "static")));
app.get('/', function(req, res) {
res.render('resume.hbs')
})
app.listen(3000)
HTML Structure:

<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

CSS Styling:

I have attached the folder structure images below, which clearly display the path. Despite this, the issue persists. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
