Inspiration

Build a working app for our first hackathon. Initially we wanted to build a name origin app: Input name Return country of origin name came from However due to time restraints and unable to resource a proper api we decided for the latter and a working api.

What it does

Weather application: Input location Return weather details

How we built it

ReactJS, API, eslint

Challenges we ran into

Although simple, when building this app, there were a few issues we ran into regarding its construction. One issue was finding an appropriate API for usage. This presented a challenge because not all API's are created equally. Some API's required a foreign key while others did not. Some API's required CORS implementation, while others did not. Finding the appropriate API for this project was indeed challenging, but necessary to ensure the proper execution of the application.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud of our great teamwork and communication. We appreciated each other's realistic goals based on our timeline. We wanted to implement a working app, that also demonstrated the open source project.

What we learned

We learned API usage with React, and eslint.

What's next for current-weather-location-eslint

To implement daily motivational quotes and add news feed.
