Introduction to APIs Workshop

This is starter code for a beginners-friendly introduction to APIs workshop. This project was created using Create React App. The goal of the workshop is to use an API to generate random quotes.

  1. Download and install node
  2. Open Terminal on MacOS or PowerShell on Windows
  3. Clone this git repository by running git clone https://github.com/hootsuite/apis-101.git then cd apis-101. If you don't have git installed or encounter other issues, you should be able to download a zipfile of the code directly
  4. Run npm install which will download all dependencies for this project
  5. Run npm start which will start the project

Workshop

Follow the instructions in src/Quotes.js to make the 'Generate Quotes' button work!
