jQuery Missing from Todo List App

I'm getting an error when I open the Todo list app locally:

Sprockets::FileNotFound in TodoLists#index

then

couldn't find file 'jquery' (in /home/treehouse/projects/odot/app/assets/javascripts/application.js:13)

finally

Extracted source (around line #6):

<head>
    <title>Odot</title>
    <%= stylesheet_link_tag    "application", media: "all", "data-turbolinks-track" => true %>
    <%= javascript_include_tag "application", "data-turbolinks-track" => true %>
    <%= csrf_meta_tags %>
  </head>
  <body>

Just make sure you have jquery in your Gemfile (gem 'jquery-rails'; perform a successful bundle install) and in your application.js (//= require jquery).

P.S. Love the uniform :)

I must have made a mistake on my first attempt, because I setup a new project and everything is ok now.
