FriendFinder is a full-stack application that matches friends based on the compatibility of each users' serveys. The user is brought to a landing page and then asked to begin a survey. Each survey is comprised of 10 questions, meant to guage the user's personality and interests. Answers are scored between 1 to 5 based on how much the user agrees or disagrees with a question. The app compare the user's answers with those from other users, and will then display the name and picture of the user with the best overall match.
This app uses Express, in conjunction with Node.js, to handle the server routes for get and post requests. Being that it is full-stack, it is hosted on Heroku.

Notice that the url says /survey when you go to the survey page. This is Express handling the different html routes.
Once you input all your scores, they will be calulated against other users scores to bring back to closest possible match.
