Connect to Twilio
const BroidTwilio = require('@broid/twilio');
const twilio = new BroidTwilio({
username: '<phone_number>',
token: '<account_sid>',

http: {
host: "127.0.0.1",

}
});
twilio.connect()
.subscribe({
next: data => console.log(data),

const express = require("express");
const twilio = new BroidTwilio({
username: '<phone_number>',

});
const app = express();
app.use("/twilio", twilio.getRouter());
twilio.connect()
.subscribe({
next: data => console.log(data),
error: err => console.error(`Something went wrong: ${err.message}`),
complete: () => console.log('complete'),
});
app.listen(8080);
