This application implements friend matching from responses to a ten question survey. The application is meant to simulate a simple dating app. The application is implemented using a Node.js and Bootstrap framework on the front end. Friend Finder implements friend matching based on the user's responses to a ten question survey. The user responds to questions with values from 1 to 5 characters. When the survey is submitted, an existing user record closest to the current user's responses is found and returned. The closest set of user responses is defined as the set with the lowest absolute difference for all ten questions combined.
