In plain words

An API directory is a development tool that helps developers discover and access APIs for their projects. Launched in 2013, it provides a searchable collection of available APIs organized for easy browsing. The platform serves software developers and teams who need to find specific API services to integrate into their applications or systems. It functions as a centralized reference point for exploring different API options across various categories and use cases.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client.
