Now that we have our data, we need it somewhere we can use it!
How can we store this data so we can use it for our map?
Colby Fayock: [0:00] Now that we have our location data, we want to add it somewhere to store format. Under src, I'm going to create a new folder called data. In that data folder, I'm going to create a file called locations.json. With that file, we can copy all the contents from our features from our map, and we can paste it right in that file.
[0:13] To use that file, we're going to import our locations from data/locations. To make sure that works. I'm going to add a console.log at the top where I'm going to pass in those locations. We can see that our app is logging out all those features.
