Awesome APIs is a curated directory of third-party APIs for developers, organized into categories. Each entry is a link to the official API documentation or a GitHub repository for that service, accompanied by a short description of what it provides. There are no code tutorials or installation steps here. The purpose is to help developers discover existing services they can connect to when building applications, without needing to search across the web for them.

The categories cover a wide range of domains: anime databases, blogging platforms, books, business tools, calendar services, car sharing, cloud infrastructure, cloud storage, delivery tracking, design tools, developer utilities, email, fitness and wearables, food, foreign exchange rates, games, IoT (Internet of Things), machine learning, maps, messaging platforms, music, news and information, notes, payment processing, photography, places and local data, social networks, shopping, team collaboration, text analysis, to-do services, tourism, translation, video, voice analysis, vision and image analysis, and weather. The table of contents lists over 35 distinct categories.

The README is available in English and Chinese. The project follows the conventions of the "awesome" list format, a well-established GitHub tradition for community-maintained reference collections. Contributions are accepted via pull requests on GitHub.

Some entries across the categories include well-known services such as Google Blogger, WordPress, Medium, Airtable, Buffer, Stripe, YouTube, and Twitter alongside smaller specialized services. Each entry is described in a sentence or two based on the API's own documentation. The full README is longer than what was shown.
