Isomorphic JavaScript runs the same codebase on the server and in the client browser. The JavaScript server is typically built with Node.js. In an isomorphic JavaScript application with AngularJS on the frontend, CORS requests are handled by the JavaScript server.

Enabling CORS in AngularJS

To enable CORS in AngularJS, we will create a service, which we will call appName. Configure $httpProvider.defaults with useXDomain so that the cross-domain requests are also...
