A web client made to consume the URLShortener API

Web Client

To consume the API and interact with the URL shortener service, a web client has been developed using JavaScript. This client handles different API responses appropriately and displays errors accordingly. To use the web client, follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the tinyUrl directory in the project repository:

   cd tinyUrl

2. Start the Python HTTP server on port 8001 (to match the CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS in the API settings)

   python -m http.server 8001

3. Open your web browser and access the client at http://localhost:8001. The web client provides an intuitive interface for users to interact with the URL shortener API and test its functionality
