Walkthrough

This PR adds two new beginner-level project specifications as Markdown documents: a Password Strength Checker and a Weather Dashboard. Both files outline project goals, user stories, bonus features, and resources without containing executable code.

Changes

Cohort / File(s) Change Summary
New Beginner Project Specifications
Projects/1-Beginner/Password-Strength-Checker.md, Projects/1-Beginner/Weather-Dashboard.md
Added two new markdown project specification documents. Password-Strength-Checker outlines a beginner password validator including user stories and bonus features. Weather-Dashboard introduces a weather application concept with multiple user stories (city input, weather display, forecasts) and bonus features (geolocation, favorites, alerts, maps). Both include relevant resources and example project references.

Estimated code review effort

🎯 1 (Trivial) | ⏱️ ~5 minutes

  • Both files are purely descriptive documentation with no executable logic or code
  • Quick verification needed to ensure consistency with existing project specification format
  • Check that resources links are accessible and relevant to each project type

Poem

🐰 Two new projects hop into view,
Password checkers and weather clouds too,
Beginner-friendly paths now unfold,
With stories and features to mold—
Ideas ready for coding anew! 🌤️

Docstring Coverage ⚠️ Warning Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. You can run @coderabbitai generate docstrings to improve docstring coverage.
Title Check ❓ Inconclusive The pull request title "Added a new idea" is vague and generic, failing to convey specific information about what was actually added to the repository. While the title is technically related to the changeset (which does add new project ideas), it lacks descriptive clarity and precision. Additionally, the title uses singular phrasing ("a new idea") when the PR actually adds two new documentation files (Password-Strength-Checker.md and Weather-Dashboard.md), creating a minor mismatch in accuracy. This vagueness makes it difficult for developers scanning the repository history to quickly understand the nature and scope of the changes. Revise the title to be more specific and descriptive about the changes, such as "Add Password-Strength-Checker and Weather-Dashboard project ideas" or "Add two new beginner-level project ideas." This would clearly communicate what ideas were added while maintaining conciseness and helping other developers quickly understand the PR's purpose.

9-9: Consider mentioning API key requirement in core user story.

While the OpenWeather API is a popular choice, users need to know they'll need to obtain a free API key before implementing this project. Consider rephrasing line 9 to hint at this (e.g., "User can enter a city name to get weather information (requires OpenWeather API key)") or add this as a prerequisite note near the top of the document.

⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

🧩 Analysis chain

Verify external links and example project references.

The resource links and example projects should be validated to ensure they remain current and accessible. Given that documentation may become stale, please verify:

  • The zxcvbn library link and its current status
  • The MDN documentation links
  • The CodePen and GitHub example projects are still available and provide relevant implementations

Run the following script to verify link accessibility:


🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Description: Verify that external links in Password-Strength-Checker.md are accessible

Remove or replace broken example project links.

Three of the example projects are no longer accessible:

  • CodePen preserveddarnell/pen/oNNQxQm returns 403 (Forbidden)
  • pascalbell/password-strength-meter repository returns 404 (deleted)
  • mloureiro/react-password-strength repository returns 404 (deleted)

Either remove these non-functional links or replace them with current, accessible implementations that demonstrate password strength validation.

accessible examples (e.g., the official zxcvbn repo demo, an OWASP/MDN example,
or a working CodePen/GitHub repo demonstrating password strength meters), and
verify each replacement URL loads successfully before committing.

Verify external links and clarify API requirements.

The resources and example projects should be validated. Additionally, consider adding a note about API key requirements:

  • The OpenWeather API (line 29) requires free registration and an API key—this should be mentioned in the user stories or bonus features to set expectations
  • Verify all resource links remain current and accessible
  • Confirm the example projects are still maintained and provide relevant implementations

Run the following script to verify link accessibility:

Fix broken example project link and document API key requirement.

One of the example projects is no longer accessible:

  • https://github.com/avinash-kr-pandey/Weather_app returns a 404—remove this link or replace with a working alternative

Additionally, the OpenWeather API requires free registration for an API key. This dependency should be mentioned in the user stories or bonus features to set expectations for developers using this project.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents
In Projects/1-Beginner/Weather-Dashboard.md around lines 29 to 40, one example
project link (https://github.com/avinash-kr-pandey/Weather_app) is broken and
the OpenWeather API dependency lacks mention of the required API key; remove or
replace the broken GitHub link with a working alternative (or drop it), and
update the project description or user stories/bonus features to explicitly
state that OpenWeather requires free registration for an API key and where to
place it (e.g., environment variable or config) so contributors know this
prerequisite.
