In a nutshell, an API is a set of tools which allows you to take data from our system, and integrate it into your own application or website.
Our APIs are still under development, but as soon as we complete each part, we'll be pushing up details here how to use them.
If you'd like to get involved in using the APIs within your application or site, let us know when you've done something interesting with them, and we'll feature it on the site!
Please note: The API is still in early development, and may change. Keep an eye on this page for developments.
