Day-3: Project Ideation and API listing

Today is April 26th, 2023 and I have spent the day going through the Showwcase documentation and brainstorming project ideas using the available APIs.

As mentioned in my previous blog, I am planning to create a Chrome extension for Showwcase using their data. With this in mind, in order to organize my thoughts, I have created a list of all the open APIs that are accessible to me in this hackathon. This way, I can focus on what is available to me and not waste time on things that are not relevant to my project.

Following is a list of APIs that are relevant to my project.

• Bookmarks API for GET and POST requests
• Featured Community API for GET requests
• Companies API for GET requests
• Discover Feed API for GET requests
• Suggested Followers API for GET requests
• Notifications API for GET requests
• Road Maps API for GET requests
• Search API for GET requests
• Featured Series API for GET requests
• Trending Shows API for GET requests
• Recommended Shows API for GET requests
• Threads API for GET and POST requests
• User Information API for GET requests

I have tested all the APIs on Postman and they all appear to be functioning smoothly.

To summarize my progress for the day, I have an idea for my project, but it is not yet finalized. I plan to utilize all the APIs that I have gathered, build a Chrome extension incorporating them, and ensure that it has a Showwcase flavor in it.

Let's go 🚀
