About

1. Routes are defined in index.js to map URLs to handlebar templates.
2. Static .html files are located in /views/static.
3. Static images in views/img are loaded in index.js
4. Paths within href tags are routes instead of files (i.e. /team instead of /team.html).
5. The default template (including head, footer, and nav tags) is /views/layouts/main.handlebars.
6. Subsequent templates are defined accordingly in /views and are routed in index.js.
