Tired of the same videos with weather API?

Wnat to see somenthing else that does not hurt your eye?

Eager to practice or eager to test?

Check the below API list, they all use REST

If you have other API to add to the list

Write in the comments, yes I do insist

If your entry is fun and good to work with

I will make a video, all free and leggit.
