Researched and identified Google Translate API for the project. Outlined the HTML structure, focusing on the Textarea and Select elements for input and language options. |
Struggled with choosing the appropriate API for translations. We also had to figure out the API's documentation to understand its functionality and limitations. |

Worked on setting up the basic JavaScript for the project. Initialized DOM manipulation elements and began structuring the async function for API calls. |
Ran into CORS issues, which required us to rework how the API calls were made. We had to adjust our headers and spent considerable time troubleshooting. |

GitHub User Info |

Created a new project for GitHub User Info. Outlined the HTML structure, adding an input field for username and a button to trigger the API call. Wrote the async JavaScript function to make the fetch API call. |
Encountered rate limiting issues from GitHub's API, requiring adjustments to limit the number of calls. Additionally, the initial fetch wasn't pulling all the desired data fields. |
