1. Open any .js script in your WordPress theme and start accessing the WP REST-API via the node-wpapi client
   Example: // In a index.js controlling a index.php or index.html in a WordPress Theme
   wp.posts().embed().get().then(function( response ) {
   console.log( response );
   //do something with returned data/response
   });

  must be enqueued in the Theme’s functions.php
