New York Times API
I used the New York Times Bestsellers Books API for a small project. I wanted to find out more about the Bestsellers lists and how long books have been on each of them. I made multiple requests to the API in order to get information about book names, authors, what list they are on, and how long they have been on those lists. I also created a function that allows you to put in the name of a Bestsellers List, and it returns the book that has been on the list the longest and how long it has been on there. You can take a look at this by clicking on the links to the right.
My Role - Creator
I did research on the documentation of the API, developed questions to answer, and wrote code to get useful information from the API.
Other Project Info
I thought this mini-project was very fun, and I'm excited to delve deeper into this information. I would like to use more requests to the API to include more about Bestsellers Lists. This API is so extensive and has a lot of interesting information.
