This Cryptocurrency app is available to view and register here.
This site can be used to get the information including price, supply and trading information for any Cryptocurrency. I build this site while studying for my AWS Developer Associate exam to become more comfortable with the AWS ecosystem. It uses a cryptocurrency API to retrieve price information and the latest news about currencies.
The app allows you to search the cryptocurrency ticket, e.g. BTC, ETH, LTC in the URL to retrieve information about a particular currency. I would prefer to update this to be a query string and to use a search box on the home page. This should be done soon.
The list of the software and languages used in the project, for example:
- HTML5
- CSS
- JavaScript
- Bulma
- node.js
- AWS CodeStar
- AWS API Gateway
- AWS Lambda
- AWS CloudWatch
- Git
- Github
I build this site while studying for my AWS Developer Associate exam to become more comfortable with the AWS ecosystem. It taught me a lot about how AWS resources work together. This was my first 'serverless' projects. Experimenting with Functions as a Service was interesting. It required me think more about what my specific functions were doing.
Improvements that I would like to make to the project in the future would be:
- Update the search for currencies to be a query string
- Style the home page properly with a nav bar and perhaps the highest volume currencies for that day
