Hi Melissa--

I think you know that this one is very incomplete. Just to be clear, the things I saw missing were:

• Being able to delete a card
• Being able to create a card from a form
• having snapshot tests

Also, although I'm very happy with your app getting the card list from the API in the correct way, you didn't use the URL with your own custom board name (you are grabbing from the Ada-Lovelace board), which is against directions.

Overall, I think you did almost did a good job with what you have submitted. I want to make sure that if you have questions, you get those answers. Let me know what's up and what we can do during capstone so you don't fall behind.
