An app that shows a list of current events happening in the world. The main article Portal:Current_events would be gotten from Category:Current_events using API:Categorymembers. Portal:Current_events shows only events that happened a week to the current day. For example, if today’s date is 18/03/2019 the page will show only events that happened from 12/03/2019 to 18/03/2019. However, other events older than seven days are automatically archived so the user will also be able to access this events if need be by inputting the exact date.

Note: Users can also click on the displayed page titles and read the contents of the page.

APIs
