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.
Six APIs in categories such as Natural Language Processing and Chat have been added to the ProgrammableWeb directory. Also new to the Clients area of the directory are an Unofficial Tesla Model S Ruby SDK and Akamai Node.js SDK.
