Solution retrospective


The bigest challenge here was to retrieve a new advice on each new click on the dice. At first fetch or axios were not getting a new advice even though I was triggering a new request to the API url. This was due to fetch and axios caching data. To overcome this issue, the solution was to add a timestamp in the URL.

Overall I'm pretty happy of the outcome and it was also fun to great that glow effect when hovering the dice.

Hope you like this one!

I would be super grateful if you could follow me here or on Twitter @melwyncode
