I wanted a yorku API that I could use to automate tasks, navigate efficiently, find buildings, libraries cool hangout/study spots and so on.
Use Yorku official api, using endpoints they provide. But the issue was that Yorku doesn't have an api, so I ended up creating my own.
Everyone. We welcome new contributions to our community.
- Food Building database, including open - close time.
- More to come... like courses, their ratings?, study spots, and so on.
