Christmas Panic Button

This site is a fun personal project which I have previously used when I wanted to learn a new system. 

The latest version of this site has a number of elements which I have learned to program recently. The first is that the back-end database is built using "Minimal API's" which is a relatively new API programming framework by Microsoft utilising the latest .net core (now .net 8) technology. 

The web API queries a random record from the SQL database and returns it to the system using JSON.

In addition, the website is coded purely in HTML and Javascript to consume the API and I also learnt how to animate elements. 

The interface is primarily built to work on mobile devices first but does render perfect well on a desktop browser also. 

So the site does actually work, it will give you gift ideas and you can purchase them from the links in the site. 

I will continue to update the site whenever I want to learn something new and it can be implemented within it. So keep checking back.
