Create an application that will return a random color in the command line.

It should work like this:

When a user enters node index.js in the command line, a block of 31x9 # characters colored with a random color (using hex code, e.g. #ff0000) should be generated.

It should look like this:

In addition to node index.js, it should also be able to accept the request for a:

• hue (eg. green or red or blue)
• luminosity (eg. light or dark)

...and then generate random colors that match those choices.

For example:

When you believe you are done, set up a test:

1. Create a directory called .github (there is a dot at the start)
2. Create a directory called workflows inside .github
3. Create a file called test.yml inside workflows containing the following code

name: Test Project
on: push

jobs:
  test:

      - uses: actions/checkout@v4

        # Create a test file that will run index.js from the project
        # with Node.js and check that it roughly matches the
        # following pattern (9 rows, 31 columns, with a space in the
        # center and a hex code in the middle):

Stretch goals

• If a user types "ask" instead of a color name, print questions to ask the user for the name of the color and the luminosity
• If a user types a size in the format of WWxHH (eg. 31x9) before the color and luminosity, it will use this as the size of the box

Acceptance Criteria

• Preflight runs through without errors in your project
  • Link in your GitHub repo's About section: Replit demo
• Drone bot has been tagged and responded with a passing message
• Correct GitHub commit message format (see Writing Commit Messages)
