What will I learn today?

FreeCodeCamp project: Wikipedia viewer.

Done

After I finished MVP my next step was to enhance UI, to make it more interactive and appealing. My plan was to try at least two things:

  • a tags cloud as a background around a search bar. I wanted to get the main page of Wikipedia and parse it to weighted tags. All these tags would be fed into cloud generator and it returns a cloud of terms with links to Wiki. Here is a cloud generator - https://timdream.org/wordcloud2.js/. The idea is great but requires time to dive into. I want something less time consuming.
  • search bar should be placed in the center of a screen and on user input smoothly float to top, freeing a room for search results.
