##Instructions
#####Backend The backend creates json API that gives the app the images it uses for the screen saver. You can use any backend you want but I used a Wordpress site that has one picture per post. It takes the first image in the wordpress post.
Move the roku-api.php to the root of your Wordpress website.
in the Roku source file point the api_url
to the api. http://example.com/roku-api.php
