# heroku-node-js-getting-started
A barebones Node.js app using [Express 4](http://expressjs.com/).
Created from Heroku's starter repo, and built upon while following along with [Getting Started with Node on Heroku](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/getting-started-with-nodejs) article - check it out.
## Routes
- ```/``` (root)
- Displays landing page for *Getting Started with Node on Heroku*
- ```/cool```
- Displays a [cool ascii face](https://www.npmjs.com/package/cool-ascii-faces)
- ```/times```
- Displays number from 0 to n - 1, where n is a number provided to the application as an environment variable (Heroku config var)
- ```/db```
