Then, in your Express app, use the cookie-parser middleware to parse the cookies as follows:

index.tsx
const express = require('express');
const cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');

const app = express();

app.use(cookieParser());

app.get('/', (req, res) => {
    // Access the decoded cookies using req.cookies
    const cookies = req.cookies;

    res.json(cookies);
});

app.listen(3000, () => {
    console.log('Server is running on http://localhost:3000');
});

In this code snippet, after installing the cookie-parser package, we are using it as middleware in our Express app. It decodes the cookies and makes them accessible in req.cookies object. You can then access and manipulate the decoded cookies as needed.

Remember to replace the route handler logic with your own business logic as necessary.
