BTC/ETH Exchange Rate APP (Svelte +FLask)

This project is a web app that is built using Svelte.js for the front end and Flask(Python) for the back end. The purpose of this application is to fetch the data from two different sources for both Bitcoin and Ethereum and displays both buy and sell price for both sources. The application will also recommend the user on which exchange source to trade on along with the price difference between sources.

*Note that you will need to have [Node.js], [Flask(Python)] and [Requests(Python)] installed. *

Exchange Sources

For Bitcoin:

https://www.bitfinex.com

https://www.blockchain.com

for Ethereum:

https://www.bitfinex.com

https://www.kraken.com

How It Works

The backend consists of 4 Api's that call onto its corresponding exchange rate api to fetch the exchange rate data in json format. The fron end calls on the backend api's and retreives the exchange rate data. The front end then parses the data and displays it accordingly.

Main code is in src/App.svelte

The server/api are in server.py for develppment server and server2.py for production server
