Building User-friendly Web Apps: Ramadan Mubarak Series (Part 2)

Ramadan is a special time for millions of Muslims worldwide, and technology can help make the experience more enriching. If you're a developer, why not create web apps that assist with daily worship, fasting schedules, and community engagement?

Here are essential tools and APIs to build Ramadan-friendly web apps:

• Quran & Tafsir API: Integrate the Quran API from sources like alquran. cloud or Quran. com API to display Quranic verses, translations, and tafsir.

• Prayer Times & Hijri Calendar API: Use APIs like MuslimSalat API, Aladhan API, or IslamicFinder API to provide accurate prayer times and Hijri dates for different locations.

• Dua & Hadith Collections: Add resources from Hadith API or Dua APIs to offer daily supplications and Islamic teachings in your app.

• Islamic SVG Icons & UI Kits: Use free icon sets like Islamic Icon Pack (Flaticon) or SVG Kaaba, Mosque, and Moon Icons for a visually appealing design.

• Community Engagement Features: Add a discussion forum, donation tracker, or Ramadan challenge board to encourage interaction, such as completing Quran recitations together or tracking fasting progress.

• Multilingual Support: Ramadan is observed worldwide. Offering translations in multiple languages ensures inclusivity for a diverse audience.

• Dark Mode & Eye-Friendly UI: Many users engage with Islamic apps during nighttimes hours. Providing a dark mode option and a readable font size enhances accessibility and comfort.

By combining the right APIs with thoughtful UX design, these tools can help developers craft meaningful web applications that enhance the Ramadan experience.
