Project Description
This project explores the world of cryptocurrencies, utilizing the Django framework alongside Charts.js and CoinGecko’s API. It revolves around creating a dynamic web application that provides an intuitive visualization of cryptocurrency data, leveraging Django’s robustness, Charts.js’ graphical capabilities, and CoinGecko’s extensive cryptocurrency information.
Throughout this project, we’ll work on integrating CoinGecko’s API into the Django framework, retrieve real-time cryptocurrency data, and present it graphically using Charts.js. Tasks will involve creating templates, handling API requests, designing interactive visualizations, and implementing functionalities to enhance user experience.
We’ll learn to use Django’s templates, connect external APIs like CoinGecko for crypto data, and use Charts.js to make visual graphs. By the end of this project, we’ll have created a web app that dynamically presents cryptocurrency data.
