Need website building help

Hello,

I am creating a website and I am in need of a way to present a list of popular games being played. Something similar to Twitch’s Browse tab. It would have to update automatically, and a user would have to be able to search for the game that they wanted.

Any ideas? Not sure where to start with this one.

Cheers!

Hey there,

I'm just starting to experiment with the API - I might recommend using something like React to keep track of the array of games based on a query through the api.

That way each time you load the page it repopulates the list of games.

As for the query to get the games haven't played around a lot with it but Id suggest something like this (youd need to do a little playing around with filters or parsing the result to get the titles of all the games you're after:

https://www.giantbomb.com/api/accessories/?api_key=[YOUR-API-KEY]&format=json&filter=original_release_date:1980-1-1%2000:00:00|1990-1-1%2000:00:00&sort=original_release_date:asc

Thats my suggestion as a new to the game junior dev :D

Best of luck with the project!
