Hey, there was a problem that sometimes nasa gives a youtube link as APOD. If that wouldve happened, my script wouldnt have handled that earlier. the tag won’t work for youtube links. you need an instead. now it is all done :) .
Hello, today i am writing about how i got hold of the secret NASA data that everyone has access to for free. Dont say the UI looks bad because i went with the same color combination as in the guide aand the container holding the precious NASA data has the almost same shape. I used https://bennettfeely.com/clippy/ to make the css for this shape as instructed in guide.
I spent most of the time writing scripts………….. and debugging it. No matter how hard i tried the APOD wont load. I kept getting “Cannot set properties of null.” I had react mounting to #root, but i’d also written vanilla JS that was doing innerHTML on stuff — so basically two systems fighting over the same dom and it kept throwing “cannot set properties of null.” I was dumb enough to not figure it out before opening ChatGPT. It just said screw it and I ripped react out completely.
Also, i got a live countdown to next APOD!!!!
Now i js wanna goto sleep, i will write readme and ship it. byeeee
