Hey folks at MapQuest. Here's a brief overview about why this might look a little different and I wanted to explain.
Every AngularJS project I've worked on either was already built and was added to or started from angular-seed project: https://github.com/angular/angular-seed
To me it makes the most sense to use what's already there and build upon it so that's why I went this route because it's what I would have done in the real world.
There's instructions on the angular-seed github but basically run 'npm-install' in the root angular-test directory, once that's done run 'npm start' which will run the server then go to localhost:8000/app in the browser and it should load.
I would have liked to use bootstrap or some other framework for doing nice layouts and stylesheets but I just ran out of time and wanted to make sure the functionality was working first. Plus, that's what designers are for :).
Another fix I would like to have done but ran out of time for was some better caching; right now it's basically reloading the images each time you go to the same city, so it would be nice to not have to do that. Either way I hope you guys enjoy critiquing my code!
If there's any issues or questions please let me know if I need to clarify anything.
