So we got this new mission for making a new tab page with some API stuff.

Well… I did started it. I have made a simple website that can be used as a new tab. With a HTML form automatically going to duckduckgo. Therefore I actually still don’t have any Java script to work with currently. But you may ask how did I then requested thing from the free Nasa API. I do it through PHP. I have already made several applications with PHP so instead of following the tutorial I build everything without it (again…) was it a mistake? maybe? But now my PHP script asks every 24 hours the API endpoint for the updated info and than caches it until next time. This way clients only request from my website files + the API key is stored on the server and only used by the server + rate limit will not be a problem (i do 1 request per day, Nasa blocks at 1000 or something like that)

What i want to add with Java script is actually updating the time and date (currently server sends its time and it never gets changed) and i want to add shortcuts a bit like duckduckgo’s vim keybindings.

Maybe i also just make a quote of the day thing. Because, in my terminal, I have a Fox ASCII art that tells me every day a new quote.
