 * The top-level folder for the app is called “app”
 * On, ftp, which folder on my WordPress do I put the “app” folder into to view 
   it live on my site?
 * Thanks

 * I should put it at:
    wp-content/uploads/app
 * But wherever you put it, you will need to do more work to be able to see it live
   on your site.
 * You should make a child theme:
    [http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes](http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes)
 * Next, use a code snippet in functions.php for the child theme to load the javascript
   into the required page. Something like:
 *     ```
       <?php
         add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'add_my_script' );
         function add_my_script() {
           $my_page_id = 57; // set to the required page
           if ($my_page_id == get_the_id() ) {
             wp_enqueue_script( 'my-js', '/wp-content/uploads/app/whatever.js', array(), "1", true);
           }
         }
       ```
   
 * Other steps may be necessary depending on exactly how the app has been setup.

 * I just dropped it into the html folder at the root of the site, and it worked.
   I just had to change a couple of location pointers (just removing slashes from
   the beginning of the location pointer).
 * Thanks, though.
