## Overview
We will be building out a bare bones version of the twitter api. In this API you will be defining endpoints that allow you to create a user as well as create the tweets associated with that user. You will additionally be creating endpoints that will retrieve all the users stored in the database, all the tweets stored in the database and all the information for an individual user and their associated tweets.

## Project Implementation/Specifications
The files that comprise the API are `app.js`, the router files, the model schema and the controller files. The controller methods you will call in your router module have already been created for you. You will just need to invoke them along with the correct REST action at the specified endpoint. The files you will need to edit are the following:
1. `App.js`
- At the bottom of `App.js` paste in the teaching staff login name and password as well as the mongodb connection string you created in `Exercise 2`. The section of the url string that you need to update has been referenced directly where it goes.
+ At the bottom of `App.js` is the connection string to the database I use for class examples. You should replace this with the connection string to your own instance of a mongo database. However, if you are having issues with setting up your own database, feel free to use the one running for the class examples.
2. `User Schema`
You need to define the User Schema inside of `models/User.js`. A User has the following 5 fields:
* name - it should be a String and a required field.
