You could have made the project more advanced requesting specific information from the API. The Guardian API works with query terms, section filters. You could have given the user a few more settings in the front end and learnt more about API calls in the process.

e.g. you could let the user type in headlines they are interested to search for. The user could select the language of articles..

Don't understand your comment regarding the language. To the best of my knowledge, all articles are in English. Please explain. Plus, if the user searches for specific headlines, he will get specific headlines, so what about the site being dynamic?

samjam48 commented 5 years ago

the api allows you to search for articles by language if you want to. Read the api documentation for details

for specific headlines. The user could use a search bar to type in something that interests them.

Sure i can click on your button and get the last ten articles in politics. But I could also search for 'donald Trump' if wanted to read about him or 'EU tax changes' to read about articles on that...
