Great job on your project! Your effort in implementing this functionality using plain JavaScript is commendable and showcases your programming skills. It's evident that you've put thought and dedication into making it work seamlessly.

However, I noticed that your API keys are visible in the repository. While I appreciate your transparency and openness in sharing your code, it's crucial to prioritize security. Exposing API keys in a public repository can pose a significant risk. I recommend considering a more secure approach, such as using a .env file to store sensitive information like API keys. This way, you can keep your credentials confidential and avoid any potential security issues.

Incorporating best practices for handling sensitive information will not only enhance the security of your project but also demonstrate your commitment to producing robust and reliable code. It's a good habit to develop early on in your coding journey.

Once again, kudos on your achievements so far! Your willingness to learn and improve is evident, and I look forward to seeing more of your impressive work in the future. Keep up the excellent work and happy coding!
