TrendTube lets users click on the world map to see the trending videos for a specific country. Be aware of what's happening around you and around the world!
Note: This app was created during the one-day Spectra Hackathon at YouTube.
Front-end: HTML5, CSS, Bootstrap, Javascript, jQuery
APIs: Google Maps Javascript, Google Maps Geocoding, Youtube Data Search
- Users can click on the world map to see the top 10 trending videos for a specific country.
- Users can click on a video to watch on the screen directly.
- (Coming soon) Users can use the search engine by entering a country to see the top 10 trending videos, instead of clicking on the map.
