Broken - NewsAPI.org no longer sends image URLs back in their JSON responses for free tier users. I'm trying to find a way to get article thumbnails back through other means. For now, the alt text will simply be displayed at the top of each article tile.
Update - After reversing a decision to stop free tier users receiving ImageURLs from the API, all articles that should have a thumbnail image, now have those thumbnail images back. Hoping this doesn't happen again
Data updates on the hour
API data provided by newsapi.org
Custom ExpressJS server with node-cron scheduler fetches API data hourly to minimise calls, data is then stored in a global variable for the site to make a GET request to, to populate the cards on the landing page
