Laughter is the best medicine.
Inspiration
While working hard we often forget the simple joys of life, hence this extension to make your day a little better.
What it does
It tells you a funny dad joke every time you refresh it :D
How we built it
It makes an API call to Dadjokes API and renders the data using Javascript.
Challenges we ran into
No major challenges as such but the API did not have a very clear documentation, so we had to figure some things out ourselves by try and error.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
A smile on people's faces who use it :)
What we learned
Making API calls and how to publish an extension.
What's next for Laughter
Currently, it uses a third-party API which is rate limited. In the future, we would like to make our own backend inculcating our own web scrapers with a wide genre of jokes.
