 ## Introduction
 
-This is the chance to let your skills shine! You have learned _sooo_ much the last month, and now you get to put all of your hard-earned skills to work. Choose an open api ([this list](https://github.com/public-apis/public-apis) has a lot of great ones - look for ones with `Auth: no` and `HTTPS: yes` - or just do a google search for `open apis`). Protip - don't take too long choosing an API. Pick one that looks interesting, and get building.

 Once you have chosen an API to consume, build an app that makes sense for the data you will be retrieving. Have fun with this. You get to be the creative mind. You get to make all the decisions here. I'm excited to see what you build!

 ### Task 1: Project Set Up
 
 - [ ] Create a forked copy of this project.
-- [ ] Add your team lead as collaborator on Github.
-- [ ] Clone your OWN version of the repository in your terminal.
-- [ ] CD into the project base directory `cd React-Redux-App`.
-- [ ] Run `npx create-react-app app --use-npm` to make a CRA app.
 - [ ] CD into the react app `cd app`.
 - [ ] Start up the app using `npm start`.
-- [ ] Create a new branch: git checkout -b `<firstName-lastName>`.
-- [ ] Implement the project on your newly created `<firstName-lastName>` branch, committing changes regularly.
-- [ ] Push commits: git push origin `<firstName-lastName>`.
 
 ### Task 2: Minimum Viable Product
 
 - [ ] Build a React Redux app
 - [ ] Fetch data inside an async action creator from an API of your choosing
 - [ ] Add the data from the API to the Redux store
 - [ ] Display the data from the store in a component
-- [ ] _Some_ styling must be applied. It can be basic, but the app must not only use browser default stylings
-
-### Task 3: Stretch Problems
-
-Take the app as far as you can go! Styling, redux hooks, another API, an input to fetch data dynamically, etc. Work on it, improve it until the end of the day. If you find yourself finishing with time left to spare, jump on with your TL or fellow student to ask them what feature they think you should build next. Good luck!
-
-## Submission Format
-* [ ] Submit a Pull-Request to merge `<firstName-lastName>` Branch into `main` (student's  Repo). **Please don't merge your own pull request**
+- [ ] _Some_ styling must be applied. It can be basic, but the app must not only use browser default stylings

+# Getting Started with Create React App
+
+This project was bootstrapped with [Create React App](https://github.com/facebook/create-react-app).
+
+## Available Scripts
+
+In the project directory, you can run:
+
+### `npm start`
+
+Runs the app in the development mode.\
+Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) to view it in the browser.
+
+The page will reload if you make edits.\
+You will also see any lint errors in the console.
+
+### `npm test`
+
+Launches the test runner in the interactive watch mode.\
+See the section about [running tests](https://facebook.github.io/create-react-app/docs/running-tests) for more information.
+
+### `npm run build`
+
+Builds the app for production to the `build` folder.\
+It correctly bundles React in production mode and optimizes the build for the best performance.
+
+The build is minified and the filenames include the hashes.\
+Your app is ready to be deployed!
+
+See the section about [deployment](https://facebook.github.io/create-react-app/docs/deployment) for more information.
+
+### `npm run eject`
+
+**Note: this is a one-way operation. Once you `eject`, you can’t go back!**
+
+If you aren’t satisfied with the build tool and configuration choices, you can `eject` at any time. This command will remove the single build dependency from your project.
+
+Instead, it will copy all the configuration files and the transitive dependencies (webpack, Babel, ESLint, etc) right into your project so you have full control over them. All of the commands except `eject` will still work, but they will point to the copied scripts so you can tweak them. At this point you’re on your own.
+
+You don’t have to ever use `eject`. The curated feature set is suitable for small and middle deployments, and you shouldn’t feel obligated to use this feature. However we understand that this tool wouldn’t be useful if you couldn’t customize it when you are ready for it.
