Cryptocurrency is something that has interested me since hearing about people building rigs and people conversing about Non Fungible Tokens. So with that interest in mind I decided to create a Crypto web app that has 100 coins and Coin Gecko API. Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy.
Link to project:( https://coinforge.vercel.app/ )
Tech used: React, React-Redux, Ant Design, Chart.JS
I have been getting deeper into React and wanted to see how I could push myself to use a different UI library such as Material UI. Material UI has great docs and allowed for me to use create a nice UI to display the project. I used Axios for the API calls. For the API's I went to Coin Gecko where they list over 12,279 coins. For the individual coins I went and used Chart.JS to have each coin show the 24 Hour, 30 Day, 3 Month, 1 Year charts.
When working with this project I had to learn how to manage the API calls as well as how to display the information that I wanted from the API. I also learned that having a UI library makes your life easier as you can concentrate on building your web app much quicker than having to do all the UI yourself.
Take a look at these couple examples that I have in my own portfolio:
