##Node Express jQuery Code Challenge

• Set up server side routes to handle requests in a node/express application.
• Send requests to the server using ajax in the client side script.
• Display response on the DOM.
• Gather input from client side and save this data on the server.
• Demonstrate the separation of logic between the client and the server.

Your client has asked you to create a Joke Book application. The server will contain all the current joke data and you have been provided with the initial server file (server/app.js).

Your job will be to build up the server around the data in the server/app.js file, display the current jokes to the DOM, and add the ability for users to add their own jokes and display these too.

#####How the joke data is structured You can view the full object in server/app.js. The data structure is an array of objects. These objects have three properties: whoseJoke, jokeQuestion, and punchLine.

jokes = [
  {
    whoseJoke: "Huck",
    jokeQuestion: "What's the difference between roast beef and pea soup?",
    punchLine: "Anyone can roast beef."
  }]

To get started, fork this repo and clone it to your machine.

Focus on getting the app up and running first. You can come back and clean things up later if you have time.
