I feel like Express is a framework for writing web frameworks. It is so low-level and every method becomes so repetitive, that unless you or your company have a solid library built on top of it already, it is one of the most unproductive solutions for a server.
For really simple CRUD apps, I think it would be cool to see a database schema transformed into a REST API. Not applicable most of the time, but totally automated when required.
I'm pretty new to node.js with less that a full year of experience. and we I get started I found express is the most used library with node.js when it comes to building REST API's. so I started using it and I did't expose to any other alternative. and I guess Google Firebase implements the idea that you are taking about, but it has a lot of limitations. I see it with express like you trade the simplicity for the more functionalities you get over something like FireBase.

Yea, there are more complete frameworks like eggjs and nest.
Hasura.io does almost that. Creates a graphql API from your postgres schema.
I think there are some solutions that do just that if you look around, you can also try json-server for really simple apps
