This project was conceived as a coding challenge and a demonstration of integrating modern web technologies into a cohesive application. The core of this project involves leveraging GraphQL to interact with the open-source Rick and Morty API, a task I often set for potential hires.

export const apolloClient = new ApolloClient({ uri: "https://rickandmortyapi.com/graphql", cache: new InMemoryCache({ typePolicies: { Query: { fields: { characters: { keyArgs: false, merge(existing: Characters, incoming: Characters) { return { ...incoming, results: [ ...(existing?.results || []), ...(incoming?.results || []), ], } satisfies Characters; }, }, }, }, }, }), });

Hello, my fellow CS students! Are there any Rick & Morty fans here? Because I've just created an app called Portalpal for my final project. It's a fun little app designed to explore the Rick & Morty universe. With Portalpal, you can view, search, paginate, and filter characters. Additionally, you have the option to filter characters by episodes and locations. For the data, I utilized the rickandmorty API, which you can check out here: https://rickandmortyapi.com/. If you'd like to give it a try, here's the link to my app: https://portalpal.vercel.app/. I built it using React 18, and it took me about a month. I'm really proud of how it turned out! If you're interested, you can also find the source code for the app on my GitHub repository: https://github.com/kyawzinhtett/portalpal. Feel free to open an issue if you discover any errors.

Just a small app consuming the Rick and Morty API showing some basic stats of each character such as last known location, species and what episode(s) they appear in.

Click the guys name in the footer. It’ll take you to his GitHub profile. There you can find the source code to the site and the API.

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
