Hey everyone! 👋
Finding reliable, free public APIs for side projects or learning is always a hassle because many listed APIs eventually go down or become paid.
To solve this, I created Awesome Free APIs Live — an open-source, curated collection of 50+ free public APIs across AI, developer tools, security, and open data.
⚙️ How It Works
- Daily Health Checks: Powered by GitHub Actions, an automated script tests endpoints daily and updates live status badges.
- Zero Dead Links: Broken endpoints are flagged automatically so developers don't waste time debugging dead services.
- Categorized & Searchable: Clean, categorized UI hosted on GitHub Pages. ### 🔗 Links
- 🌐 Live Directory: shilpshakti.github.io/awesome-free-apis-live
- ⭐ GitHub Repository: github.com/ShilpShakti/awesome-free-apis-live Contributions are very welcome! If you know of any great free APIs, feel free to open a PR or check out the open issues on GitHub.

Nice — the daily health-check via GitHub Actions is the detail that matters most here, since "free API directory" usually means half the links are dead within a few months. I run a set of free API endpoints myself, so I know how easy it is for a listing to go stale without something actively pinging it. Would you take PRs to add individual endpoints, or only whole services?
