Tweeter Project

Tweeter is a simple, single-page Twitter clone.

This repository is the starter code for the project: Students will fork and clone this repository, then build upon it to practice their HTML, CSS, JS, jQuery and AJAX front-end skills, and their Node, Express back-end skills.

Getting Started

1. Create a new repository using this repository as a template.
2. Clone your repository onto your local device.
3. Install dependencies using the npm install command.
4. Start the web server using the npm run local command. The app will be served at http://localhost:8080/.
5. Go to http://localhost:8080/ in your browser.

Dependencies

• Express

tweeter's Issues

We should rename this repo to `tweeter`

We've gotten more consistent about this elsewhere but it's still a thing in the repo name.

Readme in the base project still refers to MongoDb

Even though the project does not use mongo anymore.

Filename "app.js" is misleading

While mentoring someone on this project, "app.js" confused me. App.js usually is on the server side which was also in the case in the previous URLs project. Having this file on the client side in this project is misleading. How about "render.js" instead?

I tried creating a pull request but I dont think I have access:

git push --set-upstream origin filenames-fix
ERROR: Permission to lighthouse-labs/tweeter.git denied to asmitab.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
