gatsby-starter-minimal-blog VS rick-and-morty-api-site

I think this article is misleading. Gatsby 4 wasn't available in July yet and the article itself explains updating my starter: https://github.com/LekoArts/gatsby-starter-minimal-blog

on my perfectionism - I haven't found a theme that would match my expectations and that it would be flexible enough to edit it to my taste. I have tried to start with minimal-blog (I struggled a bit with customization) and then with novela (I wanted something more simple and performant - maybe their memoir theme would be better, but in time of writing this post, it is not yet released).

Specifically looks like hand-rolled docs using Gatsby https://github.com/afuh/rick-and-morty-api-site/tree/fd7a1c1a32e42ac6be7c6ffaeea8d1b29c05d2da/src

The external API that I'm using is the Rick and Morty API. I know that there is a freeCodeCamp tutorial using this same API and teaching Next, but I want to dive a little bit deeper and understand some topics that the article does not cover.

import React, { useEffect, useState, useTransition } from 'react'; import { Link } from 'react-router-dom'; import Loader from '../Components/Loader'; import { Pagination } from '../Components/Pagination'; function Home() { const [data, setData] = useState({}); const [isLoading, startTransition] = useTransition(); const fetchCharacters = async (page?: number) => { const response = await fetch( `https://rickandmortyapi.com/api/character?page=${page}` ); const parsedData = await response.json(); startTransition(() => { if (response.ok) setData(parsedData); }); }; useEffect(() => { fetchCharacters(1); }, []); const { results, info } = data; const onPageChange = (pageNumber: number) => { fetchCharacters(pageNumber); window.scrollTo({ top: 0, behavior: 'smooth', }); }; return ( Rick And Morty {!isLoading ? ( <> {results?.map((datas: any) => { const { id, name, species, gender, origin, location, image, episode, } = datas; return ( {name ? Name: : null} {species ? Species: : null} {gender ? Gender: : null} {origin.name ? Origin: : null} {location.name ? Location: : null} {name ? {name} : null} {species ? {species} : null} {gender ? {gender} : null} {origin.name ? {origin.name} : null} {location.name ? {location.name} : null} ); })} {info ? ( ) : null} ) : ( )} ); } export default Home;

export async function getCharacter(value) { const data = await fetch( `https://rickandmortyapi.com/api/character/?name=${value}` ) const response = await data.json() if (response === undefined || response.error) { throw new Error(`HTTP error! status: ${response.error}`); } return response }

There are so many APIs you can use to write a client on: https://rickandmortyapi.com/ as an example. If you want to stick to using a cli app you can try use a TUI library to make it more slick. For images you can convert them to ascii art

I wanted to check if there is something similar to this . Just to practice react query and maybe expand it a bit. Not to use it for portfolio or try to get a job with it. While reading about react query I thought it would be good to practice it with sopranos api
