News for Ewes

Welcome to News for Ewes! The latest news about grazing, bleating and flocking!

This is a news application for ewes, showing the latest news stories using JavaScript, HTML/CSS the Guardian API. Instead of making a standard news application, we thought it would be fun to apply a theme and tap into a market niche! Please note that some of the API implementation is still work in progress.

  • JavaScript

  • Guardian API
