React: Sandbox links don't work in the second assignment

Describe your suggestion

In the second assignment, sandboxes dont' work since the API links they contain are broken. For example, this sandbox will throw an error (which is one of the many sandbox links in the article).

Thanks @royalh23, can also confirm it seems the API links that article uses are broken. Was about to suggest contacting the article author to let them know while looking for a potential replacement article in the meantime, but it looks like you may have already done so? Looks like their codesandboxes should be fixed pretty soon. I'll keep an eye on it

@MaoShizhong I haven't contacted the author, actually. Maybe you stumbled upon one of the old comments in the article suggesting a fix. I will contact the author just in case.

Edit: Yeah, someone else has recently commented about the broken links.

Ah, a well that's fortunate timing then. Should be fixed within the next couple of days then based on the author's reply 🎉

Closing as it looks like the article's codesandboxes have been fixed 🎉
