#NASA Astronomy Photo of the Day API and Rails ##Women Who Code DC This is a demo app built to show how to incorporate the NASA APOD API into a Rails app, for Women Who Code DC.

This is a great jumping off point. Other things you can do to improve the app include:

• Enable a "choose date" feature to view past photos
• Cache media in database
• "Jump to Random Date" photo generator
• Games?

The possibilities are endless!

Major credit goes to Barrett Clark, who concieved the idea of the app as a learning opportunity and helped with the original build.
