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.
