Hi! Great job on the integration of the design and API.
Regarding the issue with fetch not retrieving a fresh advice, it has to do with the fact that the data is being cached.
One way to overcome this is to make sure the API URL you're requesting is always unique. This can be done by adding a timestamp in the URL.
And if you would like to view the solution directly, you can checkout my solution here.
I'm using React and Axios but the JS logic can be reused in your project.
Cheers and happy coding!
PS: by always changing the URL, you'll also be able to bypass the 2-second rule of the API

@melwynt Thank you so much for explaining that. I feel like it's easy to go down rabbit holes on new info like this(which I've been doing a lot lately). It's extremely nice to get solid direction from people like yourself.
