Machinet for Jetbrains: bit.ly/48uNFKw
In this video, I introduce you to 40 APIs that every developer should know and use. From social media to finance to weather, these APIs will help you create amazing applications.
Most of these APIs are free without an API key, but might require some sort of sign up or a trial to begin with. For a handful of these APIs, I create a project in Python to show you what the capabilities are.
