Over the next 2 weeks, you'll be building a React App that works with various APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) that talk to different data sources to do cool stuff.
We're using the OpenWeather API to get weather data on different cities. Your challenge over the next 2 weeks is to build out this website and add even more functionality to it. At the moment, it displays basic information about a location when you type it in. Check out Issues for some more ideas!
You'll need to get your own API Key from their website (for free) and add it as an environment variable in a .env file. We have a template available as example.env.
We're also using City API by API Ninjas to get city names based on given keywords for auto-completion purposes. You'll need to get your own API Key from their website (for free) and add it as an environment variable in the .env file. This environment variable is also included in the template file example.env.
You'll be using React initially to build this. If you're new to React, check out the website for some information on getting started!
