Emergency Compliment

Mission…

Create your own version of Emergency Compliment, using Express. When a user visits the site, they should be greeted with a WDI-themed compliment to cheer them up.

Level 1: generic compliment

When you visit the root ("/") of your app, it should display a generic greeting and a randomly chosen compliment.

Here are some sample compliments but feel free to substitute in your own:

compliments = [
  "Your instructors love you",
  "High five = ^5",
  "Amanda thinks you're wicked smart!",
  "Britney Jo is sooo proud of you! :)",
  "Sean would totally hire you.",
  "It's almost beer o'clock!"
]

HINT: Check this out on how to get a random thing from an array to use in the getRandomCompliments() function.

Level 2: personalized compliment

When you visit "/name" (ie: "/randy"), the greeting should personalize itself to the provided name. There should still be a random compliment.

Level 3: user submitted compliments

Allow a user to add to the list of compliments using a POST request. You can submit POST requests to the app using a form.

CHALLENGE:

When the user refreshes the page, the background color changes randomly. Here is an array of colors you can use if you'd like:

colors = ["#fd6c3b", "#4edacf","#65a576","#f2d83d"];
