Create a random quote generator using jQuery [jquery, dom]

Random Quote Machine

We're going to use jQuery to make a webpage that displays a random quote.

Getting Started

• Fork and clone this repository
• Run npm install to install dependencies
  • npm start - start the BrowserSync server
  • npm run lint:css - lint CSS
  • npm run lint:js - lint JS
• Setup your HTML page, and don't forget to include links to the CSS and JS files.
• Be creative! Both in your choice of quotes and styling. Think about all of those different CSS properties.
• As a bonus, add a form field and allow people to include their own quotes in your random generator.

Gathering Quotes

IMDB and Goodreads are good sources for quotes. Look up a movie, an author or book that you like and see what they have. Feel free to google around for any other collection of quotes you feel inspired to use.

• IMDB quotes from the movie "Rushmore"
• Goodreads quotes from Richard Feynman

Requirements

• Using jQuery, create a webpage that generates a random quote and display it on the page when a button is clicked
  • Note that you'll want to store quotes in an array, and use Math.random() and Math.floor() to generate random array indicies.
  • See MDN for Math.random examples: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Math/random
• Every time the button is clicked, clear the old quote and replace it with a new random quote.

Bonus!

• If you've already encountered AJAX or fetch, alter this assignment to use a Quote API to pull quotes
