API Calls with Fetch

Now that you can access data from JSON APIs, build a trivia application that makes use of the Open Trivia Database.

Lab Setup

Getting started

  1. Fork and clone this repository.

  2. Navigate to the settings tab on GitHub, then choose Pages from the menu. Configure the Build and Deployment to have a Source of Deploy from a branch and select the main branch for deployment. Deployments can take a few minutes, so get started on the lab, and then be sure to check the deployment after you have made a few commits.

  3. Open up the repository in VSCode. Follow the instructions below to complete the Lab.

Instructions

Using the Open Trivia Database, update the form so that when it is submitted 10 new trivia questions appear on the page.

You may use the following HTML format for each trivia question. Replace the text with the relevant values from the API.

<article class="card">
  <h2>CATEGORY</h2>
  <p>QUESTION</p>
  <button>Show Answer</button>
  <p class="hidden">CORRECT ANSWER</p>
</article>

For the tests to pass, each question needs the .card class.

For each trivia question, then make it so that clicking on the button reveals the correct answer.

Once you have completed the base requirements above, complete the following tasks as time allows.

  • The API returns a "difficulty" key which categorizes the question based on how difficult it is. Display this difficult on the page through both text and CSS. For example, you may change the border color of the .card element to yellow if it is a medium difficulty question.

  • Add a dropdown to the form so that the user can select what category they'd like for their questions. When the form is submitted, update the API call so that only those types of questions are retrieved.

  • The multiple choice questions include a series of incorrect answers in addition to the correct answer. Update your web application so that all of the answers are displayed. Then, have the button click highlight the correct answer with CSS.
