Updates

• May 15, 2021 The API we rely on for this exercise exchangeratesapi.io stopped being free. I've added a mock fetch library which allows you to keep on using the existing API as-is, but requires you to add import { fetch } from "./lib/fetch"; to the top of api.js. This update also includes error handling that will log the message from the API and avoid showing the react crash screen.

exchange-rate's Issues

Unable to run the application

Hi all!
I'm watching a little tutorial on EggHead.io, I've cloned the repo and run yarn to install all the packages.
When I run yarn start, I get this error:

Note

I've tried with npm too, it has also given me errors

How can I fix that?

fetch(...) in api.js does not work

exchangeratesapi.io returns error, missing API key

has the api worked before without an API key?
