Technologies Used

This was an interesting project to execute as it required the merging of multiple concepts that we've learned to date. We had to use client-side storage to persist data, the UI had to be polished & mobile responsive and we could not use alerts, confirms or prompts, instead we used modal.

The 2 API's we used were:

• https://calendarific.com/
• https://openweathermap.org/

The CSS framework we used was:

• https://materializecss.com/
