  const countryList = useContext(CountryContext)
  const search = useContext(SearchContext)

  const countryElement = countryList
    .filter(country => {
      return country.name.toLowerCase().includes(search.value.toLowerCase())
    })
    .map((country, index) => {
      return (
        <div key={index} className='country'>
          <h3 className='countryHeading'>{country.name}</h3>
          <a href={country.link}>
            <img
              className='flag'
              src={country.flag}
              alt={country.flagAlt}
              loading='lazy'
            />
          </a>
        </div>
      )
    })

Every country that is currently supported in the International Data Matrix has its own "Country Page". The all country pages are generated generated through the id.tsx file.

The Translator -

Built using the DeepL translator API. NOTE THAT CURRENTLY THE ONLY SUPPORTED INPUT LANGUAGE IS ENGLISH

[translateRoute.ts](https://github.com/SchoolyB/International-Data-Matrix/blob/master/server/src/routes/translateRoute.ts)

const deepl = require("deepl-node");
app.post("/translator", (request, response) => {
  const translator = new deepl.Translator(process.env.TRANSLATION_KEY);

  const sourceText = request.body.sourceText;
  const outputLanguage = request.body.outputLanguage; //the language we want the output to be

  translator
    .translateText(sourceText, null, outputLanguage)
    .then((result) => {
      const responseBody = {
        //if a key in an obj doesn't have a colon and a value JS auto assumes that the value is itself
        // same as writing sourceText: sourceText
        text: result.text, //this
      };
      response.json(responseBody);
    })
    .catch((error) => {
      console.error(error);
    });
});

App.ts

const deepl = require("deepl-node");

app.post("/translator", (request, response) => {
  const translator = new deepl.Translator(process.env.TRANSLATION_KEY);

  const sourceText = request.body.sourceText;
  const outputLanguage = request.body.outputLanguage;
  translator
    .translateText(sourceText, null, outputLanguage)
    .then(result => {
      console.log(result.text);

      const responseBody = {
        text: result.text
      };

      response.json(responseBody);
    })
    .catch(error => {
      console.error(error);
    });
});

This simple contact page allows users to submit their feedback that will then be sent to The IDM's email. The form uses a POST method and a Formspree url as the action to send the data on submit. Feel free to give it a try :)

 <form action="https://formspree.io/f/mknelldn" method="POST">
      <label  class="contactLabel"id="contactName">
        <input class="contactInput" type="text" name = "name" placeholder="Enter your name"></input>
      </label>

The Map Page -

Builds map using the Google Maps API and the google-map-react package

const map = () => {
const { isLoaded } = useLoadScript({
  googleMapsApiKey: `${mapKey}` || '',
})
const center = useMemo(() => ({ lat: 0, lng: 0 }), [])

return (
<div className="map">
  {!isLoaded ? (
  <h1 id="mapLoading">Loading...</h1>
) : (
  <GoogleMap
    mapContainerClassName="map-container"
    center={center}
    zoom={3.5}
  ></GoogleMap>
  )}
</div>
  )
}
