3[Luxon](https://moment.github.io/luxon/#/?id=luxon) is, like [date-fns](https://www.val.town/v/tmcw.datefnsExample), a good option for formatting, parsing, and manipulating dates. It's more of a direct successor to [moment](https://www.val.town/v/tmcw.momentExample) and has a similar method-chain-oriented API rather than function-call oriented API like date-fns.

1# Get YT Video Information
2
3Given a youtube video url, this val returns a small amount of information about the video: title, channel title, and the description. It uses the Youtube Data API v3, so you need to bring your own API key to get it to work (see [here](https://developers.google.com/youtube/v3/getting-started) about setting up an API key).
1# [The Big Story](https://tmcw-big_story_visualization.express.val.run/)
2
3This val, along with [@tmcw.big_story](https://www.val.town/v/tmcw.big_story), which requests from the [New York Times API](https://developer.nytimes.com/), and [@tmcw.big_stories_ranks](https://www.val.town/v/tmcw.big_stories_ranks), which contains the data, generates a visualization of top stories on the NYTimes homepage.

5This is here just to ask the question – what happens to cover stories over time? Do they slowly drop down the page, or just get replaced by a fully new lede? So far it doesn't have quite enough data to answer that question.

6
7This val, along with a val called `poll_results` and a val called `poll_options`, lets you conduct a little poll using just Val Town! With the [express API](https://docs.val.town/api#9bff1f5f778e4fe3a143df8169101795), this exposes a web interface in which people can click an option and vote. We make sure everyone only votes once by setting a cookie in their browser.

9This uses [htmx](https://htmx.org/) to make the voting experience slick, [Tailwind](https://tailwindcss.com/) to style the UI, and [htm](https://github.com/developit/htm) to generate HTML for the pages.
1# SVG Button Link for Markdown
2
3Pioneered by [@easrng](/u/easrng), this val allows you to create an SVG image via the Express API, which we can embed in Val Town markdown, and wrap so it acts like a button.

5## Usage
1This val is simple, and just a way to test the express API.
