About The Project

MoonCHART was developed as part of my CS degree program with simplicity and to the point design in mind. It allows you to get a quick and easy overview of current stock and crypto prices without having to create an account or anything else. In the backend, the app uses four different APIs:

• CoinGecko API for fetching all data related to crypto currencies
• Finnhub API for fetching live stock data and compyany details
• Polygon.io Stock API for fetching historical stock data
• freecurrencyapi for fetching current exchange rates from usd to eur

Features
