This application takes notes that are entered and stores them in a flat file in JSON format. It reads the stored 'Notes' when the program is launched so that they are persistent until manually deleted by the application user.

This app uses Node.js, the package.json file has all the dependancies inside. Copying the directory sturcture as-is and going to the root level then running the command 'npm install' will collect the required modules and install them.

Screenshots

Initial launch: Opening the '.../notes' URL: Clicking on a stored note brings up the Title and strored body text:

NOTE: As of November 2022, Heroku has no "free" accounts, so the demo application has been taken offline until another suitable host can be found.

To run locally: The app server is launched by Node, type the command 'node server.js' to start the back-end. Then launch a web browser and go to the URL 'localhost:3001/' to get the inital page.
