Create a Trivia Game using ReactJS

Quizzical is a Trivia game implemented in ReactJS by Harmeet Matharoo and Habib ur rehman Bhatti. While creating this project I learned about Event Listeners in React, React State, Conditional Rendering in React, React Hooks(useEffect), etc. A player is given 5 random questions with 4 choices each. Trivia questions are retrieved from Open Trivia Database API. A participant can validate their answers and can play as many times as they want. Have Fun 😄. After creating the project, it was deployed to GitHub Pages 🐦 Feel free to reach me onTwitter 👾

“All parts should go together without forcing.  You must remember that the parts you are reassembling were disassembled by you.  Therefore, if you can’t get them together again, there must be a reason.  By all means, do not use a hammer."
