An FYI for anyone who may have already another app running on port 3000 (which is the same port as the API). This will cause the GET to return a 404, so be sure to kill any other app that's using this port

Good call, Dan. It's a common port to run an app on, so make sure it's free! You can always configure this in the package.json file. In later episodes in the series, you'll see both a dev and test environment running separately in that file, and can configure it all to your fancy.
