convertify

Features

• Select source and target currencies
• Convert to multiple currencies
• Choose a date in the past for the rates
• LocalStorage to keep the user's choice on refresh

Notes

• Downloaded flags are way too large in filesize, increasing the js bundle. Reverted to importing them as images, that way they are not included in the bundled and the dom size is reduced as well.
• Conversions could be improved, now there are two values, the "internal" and the conversion. I was going to fix this while also doing bidirectional conversion, but not enough time.
• Conversions could be simplified, doing the conversion on the component and not all of them through the store. Would also keep the state simpler.
• Api functions should be written separately.
• Use cents to deal with floating number precision.
