Translr - A Translation App

About This Project

I worked with another developer to create a translation app. This is a translation app built with React and React-Bootstrap.

During the planning process, we created two user profiles to help guide us build the app.

There are six language translation options: English-French, French-English, English-German, German-English, English-Italian, and Italian-English.

API

This app uses the Collins Dictionary API, which provides six different bilingual dictionary options. Once the user has entered a search query, made a dictionary selection, and clicked “Search”, the app returns an HTML string of the translation.

State Management

Since this is a small project, we used the Context API to manage state.

Design / React Bootstrap

To keep elements consistent, we used React Bootstrap with some custom CSS.

Web Accessibility

We utilized Lighthouse and Axe as tools to help identify and fix any accessibility issues.
