API Request

Post by kurai021 »

Hi,

I want access for the API. I'm creating a web frontend for Retroarch web player, something between Hyperspin or Launchbox and Netflix. At the moment I am only looking to design a free beta.

Hello!

Just a point of clarity, are you developing your own project, or relying on LaunchBox and/or HyperSpin for data?

Thanks in advance!

We're curious to see how new projects use TGDB API.
If you have a new public project, please provide a link to it so we can highlight cool new applications! 8-)

My own project, I would not want to be as ambitious as comparing it with Stadia or GeForce Now as it is not streaming, perhaps it would be closer to Launchbox or Hyperspin, but with games preloaded in the cloud to be played with Retroarch web player
