A web app that lets users view and leave comments on the latest news from TrekMovie.com. All articles are scraped from other sites.
Link to the deployed app: https://immense-escarpment-69009.herokuapp.com/
This Node.js application makes use of the following npm packages: express, express-handlebars, mongoose, body-parser, cheerio, and request
All articles that are scraped, via cheerio are saved as a collection in MongoDB.
This app scrapes and displays the following information for each article:
Headline - the title of the article
URL - the url to the original article
A secondary aspect of the function is that a user can click on the title or link of a given article to add a note, including a note title and a note body contents. This is saved as an additional collection in the MongoDB.
Hoped future development will include images, clickable links, storing and accessing past articles.
