Every day, the ProgrammableWeb team is busy, updating its three primary directories for APIs, clients (language-specific libraries or SDKs for consuming or providing APIs), and source code samples. If you have new APIs, clients, or source code examples to add to ProgrammableWeb’s directories, we offer forms (APIs, Clients, Source Code) for submitting them to our API research team. If there’s a listing in one of our directories that you’d like to claim as the owner, please contact us at editor@programmableweb.com.
We've added six APIs to the ProgrammableWeb directory in categories such as Music, Notifications, and Sports. Also new to the directory are SDKs for Quip document creation service, Resputate reputation service, and Mondo online bank. Here's a rundown of the latest additions.

Frameworks, Libraries, and SDKs
Quip is a word processor enabling document creation on any device. The Quip API enables documents to be downloaded or uploaded as HTML, allowing developers to write custom document importers and exporters. Several SDKs for communication with the API were added to the library including the Python SDK and Node.js SDK both provided by Quip. The Quip Go SDK by developer Matt DuVall allows users to upload lists, documents, and spreadsheets in business environments. And the Quip Ruby SDK by developer Jaqueline lets developers implement documents, spreadsheets, and lists into Web services. Resources include installation and usage.
Repustate's API lets developers create their own tools to monitor social networks and blogs for keywords or phrases, by exposing a natural language and sentiment extraction API. A Java SDK, C# SDK, and PHP SDK are provided to aid in API interaction for improving business reputations through social media sentiment analysis.
Mondo is a mobile-first bank and banking application. The MondoREST API is a banking API that allows interaction with users' accounts. Interactions include listing and retrieving transactions. The Mondo GO SDK by developer Stephen Whitworth provides GO bindings for the Mondo REST Banking API. It organizes and offers full support for Mondo objects such as Transactions, Merchants and Addresses.
