Review Summary
Your solution is approved as it correctly implements all required functionality: the HTML form captures date, title, and amount fields, the server handles POST requests to /add-expense, persists data to db/expense.json, and returns a well-formatted JSON response in HTML. Error handling for file operations and invalid payloads is properly implemented. The type handling note (amount as string) is a minor consideration and doesn't block the task completion. No test failures were detected in the provided context.
