    paper Rest Countries API with Color Theme Switcher project

    The Rest Countries API with Color Theme Switcher is a client-side web application that allows users to explore information about countries worldwide. Users can view all countries, search by name, filter by region, and click on a country to see detailed data including population, capital, languages, currencies, and neighboring countries. The application consumes live data from the REST Countries API and dynamically updates the UI based on user interaction.

    Built using vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, the app fetches country data asynchronously, processes it for display, and supports a light/dark theme toggle. Visual indicators such as country flags, region filters, and interactive border country buttons enhance usability. The project demonstrates API integration, async/await handling, DOM manipulation, conditional rendering, and responsive design for both desktop and mobile devices.

    paper Green Power Clock

    The Green Power Clock is a client-side web application that allows users to check the real-time carbon intensity of electricity in their UK region by entering a postcode. The application consumes live data from the UK National Grid Carbon Intensity API and calculates estimated grid emissions based on the regional energy generation mix.

    Using vanilla HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, the app fetches forecast data asynchronously, processes fuel-type emission factors, and dynamically updates the UI to show carbon intensity levels (Low, Medium, High). Visual indicators such as a colour gradient bar, arrow marker, and contextual recommendations help users understand when it is more environmentally friendly to use electricity. The project demonstrates API integration, async/await handling, DOM manipulation, conditional rendering, and responsive UI design
