Design and build an application that uses images, text and shapes to create pleasing compositions in a collage-like form.
Learn how to use XML HTTP Requests to query an external data source, in this case an image API hosted by a 3rd party, and retrieve images based on user keyword input.
Take user input and do something useful.
Generate SVG shapes randomly.
Utilize SVG masking functionality.
Use ES 6 modules.
Leverage npm in a useful way
Run the application:
Clone the repo,
This project uses SASS, so make sure it is available
Make sure you have a recent version of node (10.14.2)
Run npm install
Then npm run dev
Change Log:
v0.0.2
Removed redundant code
added a utlils.js file for functions that are widely used or do repetitive tasks
fixing up files for better readability and removing commented out code
left some commented console log, b/c I'm still a little unclear about functionality, so I might want to return them later
v0.0.1
Added a proper README.md
update to package.json: running npm start sets up browser sync and starts sass watching as well...
added in functionality to generate shapes (mostly triangles using polygon)
figured out how to make my xhr function generic and therefore be able to get more than one image at time.
v0.0.0
created this project
wrestled w/ many of the subjects raised in the goals section
dynamic circle generation
sorted out how to use the masking functionality in svgs
set up browser-sync for development
a whole boatload of experiments, falling down rabbit holes, despair, frustration, jubilation, wandering down blind alleys and general good times...
