My Final Portfolio Project (Journal App)

I went with the provided example app for my project, which is a daily journal app with a weather component and an inspirational quote. I find I am good at building other peoples ideas, but not so good at coming up with my own…

I finished the app and it runs perfectly fine in localhost, but when I publish it to Netlify it isn’t working do to it not having access to my api access keys. I know not to commit my .env file to github, but I am not sure how else to access the api keys with my app.

Anyways, here is a link to my published app.

And here is a link to my github repo

It looks like crap without access to openweather and unsplash. If someone could walk me through how to give the app access to my api keys without them being publicly visible, I would really appreciate it.

Here is a screenshot of what it looks like when I run it in localhost:

Thank you!
