Challenge

You will need to develop a frontend application for the Books API provided by the NYTimes.

The app should consume the following API: https://developer.nytimes.com/docs/books-product/1/overview

To complete the assignment, you must provide the following functions:

1. Save the first 10 results given by the /lists/names.json endpoint.
   • As soon as the app is rendered, it should consume the endpoint to obtain the first 10 categories given by the endpoint. We are going to use this list to later search or filter book titles.
2. Provide a selection of categories.
   • Before the user can search for a specific book, the user should select from the list of categories obtained in 1.
3. Provide a search bar.
   • Once the category is selected, a search bar should be enabled for the user to look up for a book by its title. Once the user presses Enter, it should query the search using the API.
4. Show the search results.
   • After the search query to the API, show the title, description and author of every results, if any.
5. Link to a Google Search for every result.
   • When the users clicks on a result, it should redirect them to a Google Search using the title and author obtained in 4. ie: https://www.google.com/search?q=range+david+epstein
