##Setup

. Make sure you have node and npm installed (can be installed from https://nodejs.org/) and run $ npm install
to install the dependencies.
Note: This project requires Node v6.0.0 or higher.
To connect to Slack, the app uses a Slack API token. This can be found at https://api.slack.com/web and must be added to your environment variables. To do this, copy it and run the command $ export SLACK_TOKEN='[your token here]'
(or add it to your environment variables in an equivalent fashion). Run the app with $ node main.js
.
