I was having problems understanding the jQuery and Ajax parts too, going through the intro to jQuery course now and itā€™s really helpful, thanks for sharing!

I know the feels on this, I too saw examples of people using a hardcoded array and I didnā€™t like the idea of having my code full of quotes, thinking about the amount of time I spent on it it would probably have been the quicker option.

Just so you know my random quote machine didnā€™t use an API but instead a call of JSON data from a gist, Iā€™m just tackling the api stuff now with the local weather app

good luck #youcandothis!!
