feat(extensions): handle ExpressJS build steps and bare bases
Metadata
Current evaluation
Closed unmerged as a duplicate: ExpressJS build-step support landed in #1315 (commit b640dccd); the bare-base portion moved to follow-up #1320, which was merged.
Resolution: closed superseded
Reason: Maintainer @alithethird closed it as duplicating the existing ExpressJS PR. #1315 (commit b640dccd) delivered the package.json build-step feature, and #1320 was merged for bare-base support in the other V2 frameworks.
