This was a Makers weekend challenge to build a single page web app that shows the latest news using the Guardian API.
You'll need to register and get an API key to use the Guardian API with this app.

npm install. - Set
API_KEYto your personal API key. - In the repo's root directory, enter:
open index.html.
You can now use the app to browse and search for the articles of your choice!
The main features of this app are grabbing headlines from the Guardian newspaper API to be displayed on the page as well as being able to click on the headlines to be taken to the actual article on the Guardian website. You also have the option of filtering the list of articles by entering a search query.
