Hi Friends

I built this practice project from the ground up using Next / React / Tailwind CSS, as part of the Frontend Mentor challenge.

The app is responsive (mobile / medium+), has both user customisation options (custom font + dark mode), and some quality of life features (such as fallback audio for words that don't contain an audio link). Lastly, I am using the Free Dictionary API to fetch the data.

The reason for picking this project was to practice using Tailwind CSS and getting responsive elements more in check. I admit some of the code blocks could have been shortened and some more elegant data checks in place, but I went for the faster prototyping approach where needed.

Note the API response (word dependent) was not always consistent re keys so had to code with flexibility in mind.

Always happy for any feedback / pointing out any improvements I could have made, or for any questions you may have regarding this project.

Have a great day!
