Project Description

In this project, we’ll build a news portal with analytics where a user can filter news based on date, country, and category. To do that, we’ll use the News API, which enables us to fetch generic news from the internet. We can also get news about a specific topic.

We’ll use the Express framework on Node.js to develop the server API. After implementing the front-end components and adding the filter functionalities, we’ll set up a server to process the requests. The finalized product will fetch news from the News API, allowing users to see different news stories, filter news based on certain filters, and follow up on each trending news story.

The components in the application are styled to provide an initial template of the application. It’s possible to style and customize them according to our own preferences.
