unAPI

The UnAPI specification is only two pages long.[1]

According to its website, an unAPI is:

a tiny HTTP API any web application may use to co-publish discretely identified objects in both HTML pages and disparate bare object formats. It consists of three parts: an identifier microformat, an HTML autodiscovery link, and three HTTP interface functions, two of which have a standardized response format.

Server-side applications which use unAPI

Client tools which can use unAPI

gollark: Wow, their code formatting is HIGHLY something.
gollark: Anyway, thus run good and not evil program?
gollark: Why ship an XML parser? Just use regexes.
gollark: No, it does NOT do that, thus run program.
gollark: Yes, that would be ridiculous; like I said, it is NOT libevilpotatos OR obfuscation to disguise NONEXISTENT evil parts.
