This project is part of the "React Basics" module from the Frontend Career Path course on Scrimba.
Quizzical is a React-based trivia game that leverages the Open Trivia Database API to test players knowledge of everything from Ancient Greek Mythology, to Video Games.
✅ Two screens (start & questions).
✅ Pull 5 questions from the OTDB API.
✅ Tally correct answers after "Check answers" is clicked.
✅ Styled & polished.
✅ Users can only select 1 answer for each question.
🔳 Decoding HTML entities: I used the html-entities package to decode strings returned from the OTDB API.
🔳 Shuffling arrays: Since the API returned the correct answer separately from the incorrect answers I needed a way to shuffle all of the possible answers into a new array.
🎯 More user controls Allow the user to select the number of questions, difficulty, or categories
🎯 User statistics Show percentage of correct answers, broken down by category, and question difficulty
🎯 Submit new questions Build an interface for users to submit new trivia questions
