 ✅ Think about situations where you would NOT want to store some data in LocalStorage. In general, placing API Keys in LocalStorage is a bad idea! Can you see why? In our case, since our app is purely for learning and will not be deployed to an app store, we will use this method.
 
-Notice that you use the Web API to manipulate LocalStorage, either by using `getItem()`, `setItem()` or `removeItem()`. It's widely supported across browsers.

-Before going further, we should discuss APIs. APIs, or [Application Programming Interfaces](https://www.webopedia.com/TERM/A/API.html), are a critical element of a web developer's toolbox. They provide standard ways for programs to interact and interface with each other. For example, if you are building a web site that needs to query a database, someone might have created an API for you to use. While there are many types of APIs, one of the most popular is a [REST API](https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2018/01/understanding-using-rest-api/).

 ✅ The term 'REST' stands for 'Representational State Transfer' and features using variously-configured URLs to fetch data. Do a little research on the various types of APIs available to developers. What format appeals to you?

 - you're querying the co2signal API to get your region's data, using your API Key. To use that key, you have to use a type of authentication in your header parameters.
 - once the API responds, you assign various elements of its response data to the parts of your screen you set up to show this data.
 - if there's an error, or if there is no result, you show an error message.
