stpcollabr8nlstn / temp_converter

This app is a basic demonstration showing how to implement a node.js server and html/js front end to run a temperature converter.

Convert It!

This app converts Celcius, Fahrenheit or Rankine to Kelvins. There are two apps. One implements a client-server build and a second uses only client-side processing.

About the build

Client-Server

Source Code:

- app.js
- views/base.pug
- views/convert.pug
- views/index.pug
- static/script.js
- static/style.css

Front End

The front end utilizes pug templates. You'll notice the syntax of pug is similar to that of HTML.

Use this app by navigating to localhost:3000/

Back End

The back end is running on an express server with node.js.

Client-Side

Source Code:

- static/client-index.html
- static/client-script.js
- static/style.css

Use this app by navigating to localhost:3000/client-index.html
