πŸ“– Dictionary API Project

A Dictionary Web Application built using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

This is my first API-based project where I implemented real-time data fetching and dynamic content rendering using a public Dictionary API.


πŸš€ Features

  • Search for any English word
  • Fetch real-time word data from an API
  • Display meanings and definitions
  • Show part of speech
  • Display example sentences (if available)
  • Error handling for invalid or unknown words

πŸ› οΈ Technologies Used

  • HTML5
  • CSS3
  • JavaScript (ES6+)
  • Fetch API
  • Async/Await
  • Public Dictionary API

πŸ“š What I Learned

Through this project, I practiced and improved:

  • API integration using Fetch
  • Working with JSON data
  • Async/Await handling
  • DOM manipulation
  • Error handling with try/catch
  • Rendering dynamic content

This project marks my transition from basic JavaScript projects to real-world API-based applications.


🎨 UI & Styling

The current version focuses primarily on functionality and API integration.

I will continue improving:

  • UI design
  • Styling structure
  • Animations and responsiveness
  • Overall visual polish

Future updates will enhance the user experience and design quality.
