API Dokumentasie
Free REST API vir element data. Nee API sleutel benodig.
https://api.periodictableofelements.org
Hierdie API is vry om vir persoonlike, opvoedkundige en kommersiële projekte te gebruik. Ons vra net dat jy'n skakel moet insluit wat terug is na die periodieke Metements.org iewers in jou app of webwerf.
