## Info ℹ️

This project was initially developed during the human-computer interaction course of 2022 at the Faculty of Technical Sciences, Novi Sad.

Due to the positive reception by the teacher's assistant, it is now open-source and available for download.

- This application implements a custom high-performance charting solution, based on drawing paths to a canvas.

- Multiple coins, including real-time market data and sparklines are available through pagination on the homepage.

- Two currencies can be chosen from the top right hand dropdown.

- Clicking a currency opens a new window with a detailed view, including the aforementioned chart.

### Remarks ⁉️

- Due to the use of the free public CoinGecko API, calls are limited to 50 per minute. The application displays according waiting messages when API quotas are hit.

- The included CoinGecko API Client has had its' dependency on `Newtonsoft.Json` removed and replaced with `System.Text.Json`, increasing JSON parsing performance.

- This application supports dark mode and automatically adapts to the system settings for the default app mode, even during runtime.

- This application was built and tested using Windows 11. It is not guaranteed to work on older versions of Windows.
