Sorry @Mario, i forgot: to browse an instance of the v2 farmOS API, here's mine: https://vdl.farmos.dev/api/
Viewed in Firefox (tho not in Chrome or Safari, which fail to render this in human-readable form), one can pull out links to the available endponts, and then use those to browse details, tho not easily. Is this all the info that would be needed to build a UI with filters and dropdowns, etc. -like that TiddlyWeb API Explorer you shared? /walt On Tuesday, July 20, 2021 at 7:11:09 PM UTC+1 PMario wrote: > Hi, > > >SO @Mario: do you think as i do that an API Explorer in TW could be a > useful tool in this pursuit? and, if so, then is it something that might be > built w/ relative ease? > > I think, it would be a useful tool. ..

Since there is no link to a demo API, I don't know how this looks like. > > -mario > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
