10/18/2021, 3:59 PMFor those looking to get familiar with the SDK I can recommend messing around with the LoTR api,
I created a tap for it over the weekend, didn't get to adding all the features and endpoints, but a satisfying way to get familiar (after failing to get very far with the Hackernews API).

@aaronsteers nice, I presumed you must have built it because you reference it in the video š

10/21/2021, 8:54 PMHey @albert_m that is kind of you thankyou, currently just working on my 2nd tap for an API we use.
I am much more comfortable with how they work, so will come back to this hackernews one on the weekend š (taps all week, taps all weekend lol)
