This week we dive into the back end code of my Flatiron Capstone project. Here we can see the choices that I made and I’ll also talk about the consequences of them. Furthermore, I also want to offer thoughts on how I would tackle them now, what I would change, and what actually wasn’t tooContinue reading “Pawns: Back end analysis and thoughts”

Unfortunately, all API’s aren’t born equal and when we try to fit them into a formatted output, it just won’t work. In this case, it’s because API’s are not always structured the same.Continue reading “AccuWeather vs the Weather Channel. API’s and their JSON outputs”
