This looks nice. Normally I use preev.com to check the current price and for conversions.
It would be nice if you add any other currencies but maybe only euro to start.
Sure, why not. I'll work on adding more currencies.
I've also added a "night mode" because I like dark modes better. Just click "night mode" in footer and it should change to the dark mode. You can toggle back and forth.
IMO, that's the only part that needs some improvements
[everything else is perfect]...
- You might want to reconsider both the background color and font color combination for your night mode:
- It might be better to go with a grayish background while keeping the same color combination used for fonts on your day/light mode [not a fan of the blue/pink combination].
Thanks for the suggestion! Did some adjustments to the color combination, dark mode looks a bit better on the eyes now. I am currently taking the easy way out to generate dark mode, using CSS "mix-blend-mode" property. Might do a full dark mode CSS and not rely on the blend mode, but currently I think I'm gonna keep it like that.
I like the night mode, but as @SFR10 probably need to do better colour combinations.
Same comment, I know that this is just your pet project and it's just a start but wanted to see more of other fiat currencies conversions. I can't remember when, but preev went down, or I have problems accessing them, so your website will be a good option.
Yea its very good alternative for preev.com and we can hope OP will bring some more currencies because this will give some more good anc convenient option to many members those want to exchange other then USD.
Will definitely add option to choose currency. Thanks for the suggestion.
Well done, it looks very nice. Here are some changes I'd like to suggest:
- Support more fiat currencies (fixer.io should make this easily achievable) and smaller BTC denominations.
- UX: Avoid resizing the text inputs when focused/clicked. Either leave them as they were, or make them bigger by default.
- Get the price from multiple (credible) sources but don't use CMC. Maybe a combination of P2P/DEX platforms and CEXes?
Spot on. I didn't know about fixer.io. That will make my job a lot easier. Thanks for sharing. And good point about the text input, although that seems to be a limitation with Chakra UI's Editable component. I will play with some CSS and see if I can fix that. I am currently using Coinbase for price but planning to add some other reliable exchanges like Kraken and Gemini as well. Won't be relying on CMC, always good to get data from the source itself.

Why not
https://thebitcoinprice.is ? I would think that domain (still available) would get generic SEO just from people typing the words
what is the bitcoin price
.
I didn't think of that. Now that I think of it, that might actually be better for SEO. Just snagged up the domain and will point that domain to the app too. More traffic is always welcome

Is this referring to mBTC? I have no idea how 100 sats is denoted by but if it's referring 1 mBTC, it should be 0.001 BTC & the first one is referred as uBIT which should be mBTC I guess. Nevertheless, it looks smooth and I liked the dark version.
Probably messed it up when I was working late at night

I'll take a look again and fix that with my next push.
Would be nice to put space separators in after every 3 digits. Easier to read larger numbers filled with 0s.
Agreed, that would be easier to read. Let me look into putting the space separators.
