✨ NextJS with Server Side Rendering (SSR) and Static Site Generation (SSG) methods.
✨ Tailwind CSS for the UI components design.
✨ NASA API for fetching astronomy picture of the day and other topic images .
- Get your API keys from NASA.
- Make a
.env
file in the root of the project and add the api key to theAPI_KEY
variable. (Refer the example.env file already present in the repository) . The reason for this is that the API key is confidential and already added to gitignore so that it wont get pushed to github.
This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app
.
- Refer this Contributing.md file for the guidelines for contributing to the project.
First, run the development server:
npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.js
. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.
API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.js
.
The pages/api
directory is mapped to /api/*
. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.
