The following two APIs are available:
- Rig Veda API: Metadata for the Rig Veda. Contains info about the gods and poets, their categories, and poem meters used in all of the Rig Veda verses
- Vedic Soceity API: A descriptions of all the nouns mentioned in vedic literature (proper nouns aren't included, though)
See Indica documentation.
The APIs are openly available through GET calls, and return data in the JSON format. You can programmatically process the data to make visually appealing or easily consumable information.
If you build an app with these APIs, please let me know. I'll include your implementation on a
Gallerypage in the documentation, and also include it underShowcaseon this page.
Thank you for wanting to help with this project ❤️
