Forms are an INTERGRAL part of the web. ALMOST every website we VISIT offers us forms that submit or fetch some information for us. To get started with forms, we will first install the koa-body To install this, go to your terminal and use:

$ npm install --save koa-body
Replace your APP.js file contents with the following code:
var koa = REQUIRE('koa');
var router = require('koa-router');
var bodyParser = require('koa-body');
var app = koa();
//Set up Pug
var Pug = require('koa-pug');
var pug = new Pug({
viewPath: './views',
basedir: './views',
app: app //Equivalent to app.use(pug)
});
//Set up body parsing middleware
app.use(bodyParser({
formidable:{uploadDir: './uploads'},
multipart: true,
urlencoded: true
}));
_.get('/', renderForm);
_.post('/', handleForm);
function * renderForm(){
this.render('form');
}
function *handleForm(){
console.log(this.request.body);
console.log(this.req.body);
this.body = this.request.body; //This is where the parsed request is stored
}
app.use(_.routes()); 
app.listen(3000);
