JaScript you are listing the components of a full web application.
For the backend API, a http server is technically sufficient.
Simplest API example I found:
https://dev.to/bipon68/create-a-rest-api-in-nodejs-1lpm
The most commonly used web server framework is Express.js but there are also other alternatives, and there are some typical combinations with the frontend for example Vue+Nuxt.

Designing a good API also requires us to use the common industry best practices. This involves many topics like
- versioning the API
- naming the routes correctly using singular and plural nouns
- using the correct HTTP methods
- error handling and error codes
- documentation, eg. Swagger
This article is quite comprehensive:
