##Aplication Architechture

Appication can be basically devided in to two parts as client and server. All the files related with the client side ui rendering of the
app is available in /public/app folder. The business logic and UI flow of the client app is independent from rest of the codes. If
the files and folders in /public/app put in to apache web server, web app should run without any issue.

Nodejs server of the app is built on top of expressjs. Server exposes some restfull web services to save and retrieve data. Both
client and the server codes follow MVC architectture which seperates layers of the system clearly.

##Deployment

Application is deployed in heroku, nodejs hosting environment using continuous deployment feature for github projects.( Each
git push to the master branch is automatically deployed ).

Mongodb sand box free version of [mlab] is used for saving data. Using the folllowing command its possible to connect to the
data base directly.

mongo ds037155.mlab.com:37155/vod -u <dbuser> -p <dbpassword>

##Tracking Users Without User Authentication

This application does not requre user authentication to view video history of users. User detection is done by a unique key
generated based on browser settings and other key finger prints. For this perpose fingerprint2 library is used with default options
to generate key.

##Run Tests

To run the test cases in /test/*.test.js files, please refer to folowing steps

1. Install mocha testing framework globaly by running npm install -g mocha

Coding Concerns
ES6 coding is not used in the app to prevent risk of deployment issues of app( within 1 week of time).Grunt is not used since its
better to keep the simplicity of app for this level of requirments. Code should be self explanatory in most of the cases.

Prototype inheritance based models structure is created for server to improve code reusability. No angular directives being
created for the ui, concerning the scope of the project.
