Features

• Server Side Rendering (SSR) and Static Site Generation (SSG) with NextJS
• UI components designed with Tailwind CSS
• Integration with the NASA API for fetching astronomy pictures and other topic images

Installation

1. Get your API keys from NASA.
2. Make a .env file in the root of the project and add the API key to the API_KEY variable. (Refer to the example.env file provided in the repository).

API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY

3. Run the development server by executing the following command in the project directory:

npm run dev

4. Open http://localhost:3000 in your browser to see the result.
5. You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.js. The page will auto-update as you edit the file.

API routes can be accessed at http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.js. The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/* and files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.
