SWAPI+: A New Canon BeginsSWAPI+: A New Canon Begins
Redefining the galaxy: An enhanced, interactive showcase of Star Wars characters, centered around the new Disney Canon, built using cutting-edge technologies.
Embarking on a Galactic Journey
SWAPI+ began as a response to outdated and occasionally erroneous data on swapi.net. Venturing into the vast Star Wars universe, I aimed to emphasize the new Disney Canon while offering richer, more accurate character details.
Managing Interstellar Data
Managing and curating data from a galaxy far, far away isn't easy. Leveraging serverless functions, SWAPI+ ensures an organized, seamless experience, even as it continues to evolve.
Thematic Styles
A unique feature of SWAPI+ is its thematic styling based on factions. Whether it’s the dark, enigmatic hues of the Sith or the hopeful, bright aesthetics of the Rebels, each section offers a distinct, immersive experience.
Crafting with a Modern Stack
React, Next.js, Typescript, API integrations, NX, and TailwindCSS form the backbone of SWAPI+. This state-of-the-art tech stack ensures scalability, efficiency, and a seamless user experience, setting the stage for future enhancements.
Laying Foundations for the Galaxy
While SWAPI+ is still in its formative phase, its intent is clear: to offer fans a comprehensive, accurate, and interactive Star Wars character experience. The project currently lays the foundation for this ambitious goal, with more features on the horizon.
