Inspiration

I wanted to make a simple app that can quickly get me COVID-19 statistics for a date and location.

What it does

It gets you accurate COVID-19 statistics for a given country and date.

How I built it

I built it using a public API offered by Our World In Data. I used JavaScript to pull the values from the API endpoint and used Bootstrap to style the home and statistics pages.

Challenges I ran into

At first I wanted to make a Discord bot that had the statistics as a specific command, but that didn't really work out, so I basically had to rewrite the whole thing into a web app.

What's next for Virowebs

I want to add some graphs to the statistics page that shows you how the new cases / total cases / deaths have changed over the past few months.
