WikiMeter API

The WikiMeter API is a rate limited ASP Minimal API for my WikiMeter Chromium Extension. It allows users to grab Wikipedia metadata regardless of the CORS origin, circumventing an issue I encounterd during the extension development.

Features

• Minimal API: A simple API, acting as a router for Wikipedia metadata.

• Rate Limited: Makes use of ASP middleware for efficient rate limiting preventing misuse.

• .NET Powered: Utilises the flexibility and efficiency of .NET for expressive and consice code.

Technologies Used

• ASP WebAPI: Making use of the minimal API syntax, we get an efficient, simple API with great middleware.
