Inspiration

Nowadays, websites try to keep us online for as long as possible. Yet a lot of the time, only a small amount of content from a website is useful. Therefore, I develop a chrome extension that turn website into apis so you can get the only content you care about from the website. Also, you can share the API that you created!

What it does

It allows users to use simple clicking gesture to denote item, or items(the plugin will use the dom tree to try to figure out the appropriate siblings items). Then, user can simply run the generated api to get the goodies.

How I built it

Built it with a lot of javascript to handle the front end, and Microsoft Azure to handle the storage/sharing of API on the backend.

Challenges I ran into

Javascript is ugly and horrible.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

It's actually kinda useful.
