This application is one of the final projects for SheCodes React. The most challenging part of this project was coordinating two different APIs. At first, I would run into a problem when the dictionary API didn’t have a particular word (usually a proper noun), yet the image API would return images for this word. The solution was quite simple: I had to ensure a request for an image is sent only once there is a response from the dictionary API.
This application was created in React as one of the final projects for SheCodes React. Unit conversion is what I am most proud of. No instructions were provided on how to build a unit converter for the weather forecast, so this was something I learned to do by myself.
This was my first web application which helped to become proficient in JavaScript. The design was inspired by Co-Star app and its website where I used “inspect” tool to learn how they utilize various CSS properties.
