Introduction

I like the power of APIs. They turn simple applications into more useful, informative applications. I have been using APIs to turn my thoughts into a real-life problem-solving application by creating weather and Covid19 statistics web apps.

You can develop some great applications with the use of the following APIs.

So let's begin the list.

API Football

If you are a fan of a sport like a football, then it will be more fun and exciting to work on a project that deals with football data. API football provides tons of data including teams, fixtures, live scores, predictions, etc.
