healthy 3,136 Subscribers

Generate .gitignore files as an API — 309 ready-to-use .gitignore templates for languages, frameworks, tools and editors, straight from GitHub's official github/gitignore collection. Fetch the .gitignore for any single technology (Node, Python, Java, Rust, Unity, …), search and list all available templates by name or category (languages, editors/OS globals, community stacks), or — the headline feature — combine several templates into one ready-to-commit .gitignore in a single call (e.g. names=Node,Python,macOS). Ideal for scaffolding tools, project generators, IDEs, CLIs and developer dashboards. Open data from github/gitignore (CC0).

GST API

Validate and decode Indian GSTINs (the 15-character Goods & Services Tax Identification Number) instantly and entirely offline. The validate endpoint checks the structure and recomputes the official GSTIN check digit — the base-36 weighted algorithm the GSTN itself uses — and confirms the embedded state code is real, returning a clear valid/invalid verdict with the specific reasons a number fails. The decode endpoint breaks a GSTIN into its parts: the GST state/UT code and its name, the embedded 10-character PAN, the PAN holder type (company, individual/proprietor, firm/LLP, HUF, trust, government and more, read from the PAN's 4th letter), the entity registration number, the default 'Z' slot and the check digit. A states endpoint returns the full GST state-code reference for building dropdowns and lookups. Everything is pure computation — no network call, no key, no cache — so it is fast and private, ideal for checkout and onboarding forms, invoicing and e-invoice/e-way-bill pipelines, vendor master data cleansing and bulk validation. A structural GSTIN validator and decoder — distinct from EU VAT-number validation (vat), IBAN bank-account validation (iban) and card-number checks (creditcard). Note: this verifies the number's structure and check digit, not whether it is actively registered in the GSTN portal. No upstream key, no cache.

ads.txt API

Fetch and evaluate any publisher's ads.txt / app-ads.txt — the IAB authorized-digital-sellers standard. Pass a domain and the check endpoint fetches its ads.txt server-side, then returns every seller record parsed into its fields — advertising system, the publisher's seller/account id, the DIRECT or RESELLER relationship and the optional certification-authority id (TAG-ID) — alongside counts (direct, reseller, distinct ad systems) and the declared variables OWNERDOMAIN, MANAGERDOMAIN, CONTACT and SUBDOMAINS. The verify endpoint answers the one question programmatic-advertising integrations actually ask: is this advertising system, with this publisher id, authorized to sell this domain's inventory? — returning an authorized boolean and the matching records. A missing file is reported as found:false (not an error), and soft-404 HTML pages are detected and rejected so you never parse a "page not found" as records. The request is made server-side and private or internal targets are refused (SSRF-guarded). Built for ad-tech supply-chain verification, SSP/DSP onboarding checks, anti-fraud and inventory audits. An ads.txt seller-authorization checker — distinct from the security-contact file reader (securitytxt), the robots.txt crawlability evaluator (robots) and the sitemap parser (sitemap). No upstream key, no cache.

Sitemap API

Fetch and parse an XML sitemap (the sitemaps.org protocol). Pass a sitemap URL and the parse endpoint fetches it — following redirects and transparently gunzipping .gz sitemaps — and returns its type: a urlset with every URL and its lastmod, changefreq and priority, or a sitemapindex listing the child sitemaps, with offset/limit paging for large files. The urls endpoint goes further: when the sitemap is an index it fetches the child sitemaps too and flattens every page URL into a single list, with a configurable cap on URLs and child sitemaps and a truncated flag so you stay in control. The request is made server-side and private or internal targets are refused (SSRF-guarded). Built for SEO audits, building crawl queues and content inventories, change monitoring and migration checks. A sitemap fetcher and parser — distinct from generic XML-to-JSON conversion (xml), the robots.txt evaluator (robots) and the on-page SEO audit (seo). No upstream key, no cache.

Text Segmentation API

Count and split text the way people actually read it, using Unicode-correct segmentation. The count endpoint returns the number of grapheme clusters — the real, user-perceived characters, so a family emoji counts as 1 (not 7) and an accented letter as 1 — alongside words, sentences, code points, UTF-16 code units (the naive string length that over-counts) and UTF-8 byte length. This is exactly what character-limit fields, tweet/SMS counters and validation need so the count agrees with what the user sees. The segment endpoint splits text into grapheme, word or sentence segments (word segments are flagged word-like versus punctuation and spaces) and is locale-aware, so Japanese, Chinese and Thai word boundaries come out right. Everything is computed locally with no network calls. A Unicode text segmenter — distinct from the Unicode codepoint database (unicode), the case/text-utilities toolkit (text) and string similarity (similarity). No upstream key, no cache.
