Letterboxd API — oanor API marketplace

Letterboxd API

Live Letterboxd film-diary data as an API — Letterboxd is the social network for film lovers, and this returns any member's public diary and ratings from their RSS feed. The diary endpoint lists the films a member has recently watched, each with its title, year, the member's star rating, the date watched, whether it was a rewatch, a review excerpt and the film link. The stats endpoint computes a summary of their recent watching: the number of films, their average rating, the full rating distribution, the rewatch rate and the highest-rated film. The film-social and watch-activity layer for film, social and dashboard apps. Live, no key, no cache. Distinct from TV-listings and movie-catalogue APIs — this is a Letterboxd member's own diary and ratings.

 Star Wars API — oanor API marketplace

Star Wars API

The Star Wars universe as an API — every character, planet, film, starship, vehicle and species from the saga. Look up a record by id (e.g. people 1 → Luke Skywalker: 172 cm, born 19 BBY, homeworld Tatooine), search any category by name (e.g. people q=skywalker → Luke, Anakin and Shmi), or list whole categories with paging. Each record carries the full canonical data — physical traits and affiliations for characters; climate, terrain, gravity and population for planets; crew, hyperdrive rating, cargo and cost for starships and vehicles; titles, directors, opening crawls and release dates for the films — with cross-references between them. Backed by swapi.tech. Ideal for fan sites, quizzes and trivia games, Discord bots, learning projects and any Star Wars app.

    Good response shape. The cache TTL on ID-to-URL helpers could be tunable, would help us. Switched from a competitor.
