User Story

AS A small business owner I WANT to be able to write and save notes SO THAT I can organize my thoughts and keep track of tasks I need to complete

Acceptance Criteria

GIVEN a note-taking application

WHEN I open the Note Taker THEN I am presented with a landing page with a link to a notes page

WHEN I click on the link to the notes page THEN I am presented with a page with existing notes listed in the left-hand column, plus empty fields to enter a new note title and the note’s text in the right-hand column

WHEN I enter a new note title and the note’s text THEN a Save icon appears in the navigation at the top of the page

WHEN I click on the Save icon THEN the new note I have entered is saved and appears in the left-hand column with the other existing notes

WHEN I click on an existing note in the list in the left-hand column THEN that note appears in the right-hand column

WHEN I click on the Write icon in the navigation at the top of the page THEN I am presented with empty fields to enter a new note title and the note’s text in the right-hand column

Instructions

The application should have a db.json file on the back end that will be used to store and retrieve notes using the fs module. The following HTML routes should be created

  • GET /notes should return notes.html file
  • GET * should return the index.html file The following API routes should be created
  • GET /api/notes should read the db.json file and return all saved notes as JSON
  • POST /api/notes should receive a new note to save on the request body, add it to the db.json file, and then return the new note to the client. You'll need to find a way to give each note a unique id when it's saved (look into npm packages that could do this for you)
