Using NodeJS to run the server

You should have NodeJS 6.9 or greater to run this project.

Navigate to the server directory, and run the following to install dependencies and start the server.

npm install
node index

You should see boxes in the terminal of tweets as they arrive, as well as new entries appear in the Firebase database.

You must keep this terminal running this command as long as you wish the server to continue pushing new data into the database.

To stop the server, use CTRL+C to interrupt the command and stop the server.
