Inspiration
I wanted to create a funny hack and I found an API that translated English phrases to the language of the Minions from Despicable Me.
What it does
I built a website that allows users to input text in English and then translate it to Minion speak.
How I built it
I built the website using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. I also used the FunTranslations Minion API to perform the translation from English to Minion.
Challenges I ran into
I had trouble using the API because the documentation had some incorrect information. I played around with the code and was eventually able to figure out the correct way to make the API call.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I am proud of myself for creating a fun project and using an API.
What I learned
I learned how to use HTML form input to collect user data and make an API call.
What's next for English-to-Minion Translator
Some improvements to the project could include providing the pronunciation of the Minion language and including an audio clip.
