News Summary.

JS, HTML, CSS

Personal

This project was completed in a weekend and helped me practice Single page web apps AJAX requests using vanilla JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.

I approached the game logic using Test Driven Development, Object Oriented principles, and a component based design paradigm for the stories.

The app consumes the Guardian's API with an asynchronous request to load in the most recent news stories. with a link to the full Guardian article.

When a news story is chosen, it's content is summarised by the Aylien text API and presented to the user.

Though it wasn't deliberate, the site's design is likely inspired by the Guardian's colour scheme (having spent a while looking through their site and API explorer while writing the code).
