Generate an htpasswd entry

htpasswd API
Generate and verify Apache/nginx htpasswd credentials. Hash a password with bcrypt (recommended), Apache's classic apr1 MD5, or sha1, and get back the ready-to-paste user:hash line for a .htpasswd file or an nginx auth_basic_user_file. The verify endpoint checks a password against any of those hash formats, auto-detecting the algorithm from the hash prefix ($2 for bcrypt, $apr1$ for apr1, {SHA} for sha1). Perfect for setting up HTTP Basic Auth, provisioning scripts, CI and container builds, and admin tooling. Pure local computation — credentials are hashed in memory and never stored; send them via POST. Live. 3 endpoints. Distinct from generic bcrypt password hashing — this targets the htpasswd file format and Apache-specific algorithms.

Bcrypt API
Hash and verify passwords with bcrypt, server-side. Generate a salted bcrypt hash at a cost factor you choose (4–14), check a plaintext password against an existing hash, or inspect a hash to read its bcrypt version, cost factor and salt. Fully compatible with bcrypt hashes from PHP ($2y$), Node, Python and others, so you can verify and migrate existing credentials. Pure server-side computation with no third-party upstream, so it is always available — and it offloads the deliberately CPU-intensive hashing work from your own servers. Ideal for adding password authentication, credential migration, auth tooling, testing and no-code backends.

Programming Languages API
The language definitions GitHub uses to recognise code (the open-source Linguist data) as an API — a clean reference for syntax highlighting, file-type detection, repository dashboards and developer tooling. For each of 800+ languages the API returns its type (programming, markup, data or prose), its brand colour (the hex GitHub paints it), the file extensions associated with it, common aliases, the GitHub language id and the editor (ace) mode. Look a language up by name or alias (golang resolves to Go), reverse-look-up which language(s) own a file extension (.py → Python; .h → C, C++, Objective-C), list the languages of a type, search, or list them all. Distinct from languages-api (ISO 639 human languages) — this is the programming-language reference. Served from memory — always fast.

MIME Types API
The canonical MIME / media-type database (the jshttp mime-db used by Express and most of the Node ecosystem: IANA + Apache + nginx), served from memory — no key. Resolve a media type to its file extensions, charset and compressibility; reverse-lookup the media type(s) for a file extension (e.g. png → image/png); and search or list types by source. 2,600+ media types, 1,000+ with file extensions. Lean, predictable JSON. Ideal for upload validation, Content-Type resolution, file-type detection, download handlers and developer tooling.

MusicBrainz API
The open music-metadata database as an API — artists, release-groups (albums), releases, recordings and labels, identified by stable MusicBrainz IDs (MBIDs), returned as clean JSON. Search any entity by name or Lucene query; look up an artist with their external links and tags, an album, a release with its full track list, a recording with its ISRCs, or a label; and browse an artist's complete discography. Live data with MBIDs, disambiguations, types, countries, life spans, ISRCs, barcodes, catalogue numbers and relations — the canonical identifiers that link and de-duplicate music data across services. Ideal for metadata enrichment and matching, music catalogues, tagging and library tools, and research. 11 data endpoints. Authenticated with an x-oanor-key; fair-use rate limits per plan.
