Quotes API

What's this?

A very simple API for fetching quotes related to programming.

Where can I see it in action?

Go to https://simple-quotes-api.herokuapp.com for a list of quotes or https://simple-quotes-api.herokuapp.com/random to get a random quote.

Why?

The purpose of the API is to make it a bit easier to complete the freeCodeCamp Quote Generator project. In the process, I want to give CodeNewbies the opportunity to contribute and practice working with git and github.

How can I contribute?

Take a look at the open issues. If you see something you would like to try, fork the project, make a commit and open a pull request.

To format your code, use npm run fix-format - this will run prettier and apply a standardised code style.

To run the automated test, use npm test - you'll get a report on what tests are passing and failing.

If you're unsure or struggling, don't be afraid to reach out.

Running this locally

To run the API locally, clone the repo and run npm install followed by npm start.
