A celestial event calendar

Built With:

The MVP for this project required users to browse upcoming events and save them to and delete from a list. Additional stretch features such as improving the UI by displaying the events on a calendar instead of the list and allowing users to add personal notes for events which were viewed could be some of the next features implemented into this app.
