Gazetteer

Gazetteer - The Map App

 In this project my objective was to create an interactive map app that gave you data on selected countries using HTML, Scss, Js, Bootstrap, PHP and Jquery. Either by selecting the countries by clicking on them or by finding them in a dropdown menu.

 I made multiple API calls to different endpoints to get different data using ajax request combined with PHP scripts. Data that I gathered were those such as currency exchange rates, local weather and general information on the area. I then used a modal to show the received data formatted in a readable way.

 I used leaflet.js, which is a javascript library for interactive maps, to help me create this app as it had plugins which allowed for a smoother user experience such as a marker plugin or easy buttons.
