+
-### `npm start`
+## Table of Contents

+### Built With
-### `npm test`
+![JavaScript][JavaScript]
+[![React][React]][React-url]
+[![Sass][Sass]][Sass-url]
+[![Cypress][Cypress]][Cypress-url]
-Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.\

-### `npm run build`
+
+## Getting Started
-Builds the app for production to the `build` folder.\
-It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
+To demo this site on your local machine, follow these steps:
-The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.\
-Your app is ready to be deployed!
+1. Clone down this repository
+1. `cd` into the directory
+1. Run `npm i` to install dependencies
+1. Run `npm start` to view live in your browser
-See the section about [deployment](https://facebook.github.io/create-react-app/docs/deployment) for more information.

-### `npm run eject`
+
+
+## Roadmap
+Additional features, functionality, and potential refactors:
+ * UI Testing
+ * Advanced UI features, such as dark mode
-You don't have to ever use `eject`. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn't feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn't be useful if you couldn't customize it when you are ready for it.
