I'm building an app using a free New Zealand API (no auth needed).

API: GeoNet ~ NZ earthquakes, volcanoes & tsunami feeds
Provider: GeoNet (GNS Science / Toka Tu Ake NHC)
Endpoint: GET https://api.geonet.org.nz
It returns JSON (live data).

Source: GeoNet (GNS Science / Toka Tu Ake NHC) (https://api.geonet.org.nz/)
Source type: Official public feed
Endpoint type: Direct public JSON endpoint
Integration difficulty: Copy-paste ready
Last checked: 2026-07-05
Production caveat: Still handle downtime, changing fields, empty responses, and rate limits before shipping user-facing alerts.

Help me fetch this and build a simple page that displays it nicely. Include basic production safeguards for errors, empty responses, schema changes, caching, and rate limits.
