Simple app showing world´s latest confirmed COVID cases, updated on a github repository that contains (or should) this information. The project real purpouse was for me to practice some Java with Spring and Thymeleaf.
Although i´ve followed an youtube tutorial there are some differences on my code. I use JAVA 8 instead of JAVA 12 used on the tutorial, and also i had to import the HttpClient lib in my pom.xml, as you can see on the external links i´ve quote on the external links.
- The original package name 'io.jbqneto.covid-tracker' is invalid and this project uses 'io.jbqneto.covidtracker' instead.
- BRANCH [master-tutorial] - branch containing the code and content that fits the youtube tutorial needs.
- FEATURE [show-deaths-and-recovered] - Show not only confirmed cases but also recovered and deaths by coronavirus.
- FEATURE [show-us-data] - GET US data (separated csv file) and show on table (confirmed, recovered and deaths)
