Let's discuss your "Random Quote Machine"

Hey everybody, Ive finished my random quote machine. I definitely need to work on the phone browser support. Any help with scaling the text and buttons down to the same ratio as the picture would be greatly appreciated.

Here is the link to my project https://codepen.io/CurtisjCamp/full/OggWrZ/

Thank you!

Random Quote Machine v.2 - https://codepen.io/Keith_Martens/full/wdNMoL/
Thuis time focused on making it mobile-responsive.
Added some logic if going to retweet quote > 140 chars length.
Ahother idea was: not to display quotes which are too long (skip such quotes and force another AJAX-request until we get pretty short quote from API)

UPD 11/07/17
v.3 - now can scroll the quote if too long, also tested in 4 browsers

Hey, I really like the footer you have on your project as well as the loading screen. Very nice touches throughout!

Any feedback, good or bad, is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Love the background image. Only thing I can perhaps suggest is changing the size and font of the quotes themselves for more readability. Overall I like it, it’s clean, simple, and of course that background is very appealing.

i just finished my rqm, hope to get some feedback, thx!

Here’s my RQM… Simple, but I think it gets the job done. Future work would to be to prevent or truncate quotes longer that 140 characters for Twitter.

My random quote machine turned out to be a random Oblique Strategies machine.

If you’re not familiar with Oblique Strategies, they’re a deck of cards created by the musician/producer Brian Eno that are supposed to serve as kind of an “oracle” for getting out of a creative rut. Some of them are pretty bizarre and obscure, but others can lead to some really interesting insights. I found an API that delivered the text of every edition of the Oblique Strategies cards, and built my “quote machine” using its data.

I may refactor to do some styling on the “tweet” button later, but I’m feeling pretty good about this initial build:

Hi all. This is my project link Quote Machine.
Would love to receive your feedback. Thank you :smiley:

extremely cool. I was too busy banging my head off a brick wall to do anything this original (just finished)

not very elegant I know. I was focussing on reverse engineering the functionality. FAILED since there are only TWO colours to switch between. I learnt a lot though - mostly how awkward the twitter widgets API is…

FEATURES:

  • it’s only computer science quotes.
  • My twitter button changes.

Your quote machine is nice and clean. I quite like that. It’s responsive too. :smiley:
