Insta News Project

Insta News draws on the API from the New York Times displaying the latest articles, by topic. The Insta News website is project number three and part of my intensive course in web development at Red Academy. Brief web content note: the NY Times limits the articles you may view to five per month, if you are not a subscriber.

Built With

  • JQuery
  • SASS
  • Gulp

Getting Started

Sign up for a developer account with the NY Times and get your own API: https://developer.nytimes.com/

Use JQuery to select articles in the categories of your choosing.

const selected = $(this).val(); if (selected !== '') { $.ajax({ method: 'get', url: 'https://api.nytimes.com/svc/topstories/v2/' + selected + '.json?api-key=IUALhLCmsVYpEVPVBz1PSFSRnqPN2qpJ'
