I dont really like looking at Yahoo finance because there is always stuff everywhere and its always laggy so im going to make a minimal stock viewer that is very easy to see and NOT laggy.

Minimal stock viewer
I created a minimal stock viewer. Normally, I use Yahoo finance for all of my stock viewing and when im looking for what stocks to buy, but Yahoo finance is always so cluttered, laggy and just not really easy to use especially for a beginner like me. So I decided to create a more minimal, less cluttered and frictionless stock viewer. QoL improvements: 1. It is much more minimal and easy to digest compared to Yahoo finance. 2. It's only like 200 lines of code so it is very fast, barely any loading time so I can easily view all of the stocks I follow(with the watchlist). 3. Finally, it's frictionless. No need to go through a home page, search through for your stock and view so many stats. Everything in one place.

Devlog3: I added the last touch of this stock viewer. The search bar. Now, when you search any stock ticker, it should automatically find the exchange and then using trading view api to find the stock information.

Devlog2: I’ve created a watchlist for all of my most frequently viewed stocks. It gets saved into local storage so I don’t need to download it. I think im basically done version 1 of this stock viewer.
I don’t really want this viewer to be very cluttered and full of information. Like I said in the first devlog, im still pretty new to stocks so im not sure what exactly I need on the viewer so I think 1 more devlog and then I will be done.

My goal is to create a minimal stock viewer that is easy to view and collect information. Unlike Yahoo Finance, my stock viewer isnt laggy, it’s easy to view stock information and isn’t cluttered. Im not really experienced with stocks, so as I grow more knowledge with stocks I will know what to add, and maybe, in the future this will become what yahoo finance has but is just faster and less minimal.
So far, I have finished working on the graph view on my stock viewer.
Next step is to create a watchlist and a stock information tab.
