Welcome to Courtside3, an enhancement of my previous two web applications, Courtside and Courtside2, both of which I developed during my Software Development Bootcamp. The aim behind this project is to bring fans closer to the players and teams they admire.
After gaining a deeper understanding of key concepts such as dynamic routes and {params} from Courtside2, I wanted to explore how to integrate an API rather than relying on my own Supabase database. To achieve this, I used the BalldontlieAPI to retrieve live game data, including today's games and last night's final scores. Rebuilding this web app has greatly expanded my knowledge of how APIs work and how to manipulate the data to suit my specific needs.
Looking ahead, I plan to enhance Courtside3 further by adding features such as user authentication and the ability for users to post about past and live games, making it even more engaging for basketball fans.
