I wanted to spend less time looking for my next trip and decided to create myself a Chrome Extension that shows me cheap flights at random dates from the nearest airport.<p>Finally decided to submit it on both Chrome and Firefox [1] extension stores. The app is made with Vanilla JS and jQuery and is currently translated into English and French.<p>I used Skyscanner&#x27;s API for the flights, Google&#x27;s Geocoding API to get the location, Lufthansa&#x27;s API to get the nearest airport IATA code and Unsplash for the background pictures.<p>I&#x27;m pretty sure there is much to improve, so looking for feedback!<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;addons.mozilla.org&#x2F;en-US&#x2F;firefox&#x2F;addon&#x2F;your-next-trip&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;addons.mozilla.org&#x2F;en-US&#x2F;firefox&#x2F;addon&#x2F;your-next-tri...</a>
