Was wondering if you'd do a tutorial on implementing categories to the game that matches the Trivia DB categories?

[thomassmith]

Love the course! I'm a little confused on the const answerChoices part around 3:58 as a whole. Do you have any recs on supplemental reading or any other resources that would help me understand it better?

[aravindks]

Please add a tutorial about how to add timer in questions

[netghosta]

instead of fetching the questions of a outside source (with an API) is it possible to fetch them from a DB using a DBMS ? btw... very interesting video !!!

[facundoretamar]

everything is working for me except the implementation of the question from the json(). in line 24 yo put question: loadedQuestion.question but.. where does the question property comes from?

[nrochoa]

thank you James ... with your tutorial I leaned a lot ..!!!

[francisadekanye]

please still don't understand how you formatted the the questions from the API response 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[Denilsinho]

Hi James, can you please advise how to use your own questions rather than that of the trivia. Thanks for the awesome tutorial.

[CyanideShock]

Sorry if you have gone over this, however, couldn't the user be able to find the answer from inspecting the element? If so, is there a way around this?

[chandramohanchauhan]

Hi James, can you please explain more about how to add an image, for all 3 questions. I am a beginner and I tried everything I could, but couldn't add an image. Please Help !!

Which extension did you use in your browser, for turning api code from complex code to easy code

[mehdi]

Hello, I don't understand by what to replace the points at 3.35 . Sorry if my English is bad, I'm French 😅

[zdarofMERGAITES]

Could someone explain line 28? Why dont we use const or let?

[basavarajhotkar]

Hey how to do readable json code. you have done at 00:00:53 seconds time

[momogurun]

Hi James, thank you for such a great tutorial. So I wanted to add a picture to one of the questions and I came up with this method but I am not sure how common it is. I appreciate your feedback.
I added this if in the getNewQuestion()

if(question.innerText === "What is the meaning of this sign?") {

} else {

}

From opentrivia we are getting their questions, how can i get my customized questions?

[GilFavor]

&Quot; If anyone gets this quot&; issue with the quotes of titles and stuff, best I could figure out was change "question.innerText" to "question.innerHTML" around line ~79 in game.js file. Seems to work.

[syedumairali]
