Couln't make a request to the API so I have not implemented that part, I always get: Access to fetch at from origin 'http://localhost:3000' has been blocked by CORS policy.

Help are appreciated.

    Hi Mark,

    You can override CORS restrictions by creating a server and making a request through it. The browser makes a request to your server, and then your server makes a request to the destination server. I got the clean uri API command to work this way. Also, change the headers content to "Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded".

    Another option is to use some other platform. For example Bitly.

    Over all it was a great looking site!

    I hope this helps you!
