Crypto Calculator App

CalcMyCrypto is an application for everyone, mostly for cryptocurrency users which offers real time convertion rates. You can simply insert the value of the crypto you want to convert and the app calculates the current value of your crypto in traditional currencies like dollars or euros. It solves the problem of the highly unstable cryptocurrency market rates with accurate and up to date conversion rates.

This app also includes a news page which displays the latest news about cryptocurrencies. It fetches news from the CoinGecko API and displays it in a news page.

Reflection

This project was a great opportunity to apply the skills I learned in the Full Stack Web Development course. I enjoyed building the application and learning about the different technologies involved. The project helped me understand the flow of data between the frontend and backend, and the importance of middleware in web applications. I also appreciate the use of EJS for templating, which made it easier to create reusable components and views.
