Hello, developers! I’m excited to introduce my latest project: Abhi ki News. This project is a dynamic news website component designed to fetch and display news articles in a clean and user-friendly interface. It's a fantastic way to enhance your frontend development skills using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and provides a practical example of integrating an external API into your web application.
Abhi ki News is a web application that fetches and displays news articles based on user input or predefined categories. The component features a modern design with a responsive layout, making it suitable for both desktop and mobile devices. This project demonstrates how to create a functional news interface that fetches live data from an API and presents it in an engaging format.
Here’s an overview of the project structure:
Abhi-ki-News/ ├── index.html ├── style.css └── script.js
To get started with the project, follow these steps:
Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/abhishekgurjar-in/Abhi-ki-News.git
Open the project directory:
cd Abhi-ki-News
Run the project:
The index.html file defines the structure of the news interface. Here’s a snippet:

The script.js file handles data fetching and dynamically updates the news cards. Here’s the code:
const API_KEY = "1d3a0eefa97b499d8fbc4ee93eeb40b7";
const url = "https://newsapi.org/v2/everything?q=";
window.addEventListener("load", () => fetchNews("India"));
function reload() {
window.location.reload();
}
async function fetchNews(query) {
// Show loader before making the API request
showLoader(true);
try {
const res = await fetch(`${url}${query}&apiKey=${API_KEY}`);
if (!res.ok) throw new Error("Network response was not ok");
const data = await res.json();
if (data.articles.length === 0) {
showError("No news articles found.");
} else {
bindData(data.articles);
}
} catch (error) {
showError("Failed to fetch news. Please try again later.");
} finally {
// Hide loader after the API request completes
showLoader(false);
}
}
function bindData(articles) {
const cardsContainer = document.getElementById("cards-container");
const newsCardTemplate = document.getElementById("template-news-card");
cardsContainer.innerHTML = "";
articles.forEach((article) => {
if (!article.urlToImage) return;
const cardClone = newsCardTemplate.content.cloneNode(true);
fillDataInCard(cardClone, article);
cardsContainer.appendChild(cardClone);
});
}
function fillDataInCard(cardClone, article) {
const newsImg = cardClone.querySelector("#news-img");
const newsTitle = cardClone.querySelector("#news-title");
const newsSource = cardClone.querySelector("#news-source");
const newsDesc = cardClone.querySelector("#news-desc");
newsImg.src = article.urlToImage;
newsTitle.innerHTML = article.title;
newsDesc.innerHTML = article.description;
const date = new Date(article.publishedAt).toLocaleString("en-US", {
timeZone: "Asia/Jakarta",
});
newsSource.innerHTML = `${article.source.name} · ${date}`;
cardClone.firstElementChild.addEventListener("click", () => {
window.open(article.url, "_blank");
});
}
let curSelectedNav = null;
function onNavItemClick(id) {
fetchNews(id);
const navItem = document.getElementById(id);
curSelectedNav?.classList.remove("active");
curSelectedNav = navItem;
curSelectedNav.classList.add("active");
}
const searchButton = document.getElementById("search-button");
const searchText = document.getElementById("search-text");
searchButton.addEventListener("click", () => {
const query = searchText.value;
if (!query) return;
fetchNews(query);
curSelectedNav?.classList.remove("active");
curSelectedNav = null;
});
function showLoader(isVisible) {
const loader = document.getElementById("loader");
if (isVisible) {
loader.style.display = "block";
} else {
loader.style.display = "none";
}
}
function showError(message) {
const cardsContainer = document.getElementById("cards-container");
cardsContainer.innerHTML = `<div class="error-message">${message}</div>`;
}
