Ship #1

The Daily Cosmos is a website that fetches a daily article about space from NASA. You can use it as your new tab page or just read it every day for new space facts. It was quite fun to make this, I had never used node.js before and this was quite an experience for me.

Devlog #4: READ ME READ ME

I managed to make a README! It’s very basic, but it’ll do. Now all that’s left is to ship! (hopefully i remembered everything)

Devlog #3: Adding Some Style!

Adding CSS was probably the easiest part of the mission. I just added a font (Google Sans Code, if you’re wondering), changed the background colour (to #001), and added some pseudo elements (I omitted the zigzag, as it looked quite weird). You can see the CSS below.

Also, I think that the mountains look pretty cool. 🏔️ 🏔️

Now all that’s left to do is write a README!

Devlog #2: Stealing Fetching the Data

Time to fetch the data! You can now fetch data from the NASA API with my API key!
Today’s one is a simulation of the universe named TNG50.
Next I’m going to add some fancy CSS, then I’ll get to work on a README!

Devlog #1: Got it Published!

I’m currently working on The Daily Cosmos, a daily article with images about space.

Currently, there is nothing on the site, but I plan to add some info and a picture from NASA and some fancy CSS.
