Pick your Project

What you will need in your project

• We will be building an Angular project complete with a CSS framework. You will also need to interact with an external API to get data or to help display something cool on the page. LaunchCode estimates you will spend around 100 hours on this project, but we will be doing some of this together to help get people kicked off.
• We will not actually be storing this data in a database, we can work around this by using local storage. We also don’t usually get to having users actually log in with their own accounts.

Project Ideas (taken from past CoderGirls)
