WikiRoulette

Demo of WikiRoulette powered by React

This project was originally created by @minouye.

I decided to take his concept and turn it into a web application using React and Redux for the seamless browsing of random Wikipedia articles. This is solely a learning experience and if you want to use the real deal I suggest going on the original by clicking here.

• Create the main App component.
• Create a Frame for the Wikipedia article.
• Create a Buttons component for the navigation system.
• Create a Footer component for instructions.
• Come up with logic for the next and previous buttons.
• Fetch 100 random Wikipedia articles on initilization.
• Implement React Router
• Create an About component and link it with the router
• Deploy on Heroku
• Implement Redux
• Optimize performance even more

Whew. This took about 2 days to complete. If you have any suggestions or feedback on the code, please don't hesitate to let me know.

Thanks!
