rh-api is an unofficial API that scrapes informations about shortcuts hosted on RoutineHub, the most popular platform for sharing iOS shortcuts. This project tries to create an alternative to the official API using web scraping and offering lots of data that aren't available in the current (V1) version of the official API.

The application is built with Next.js and Typescript, and hosted on Vercel.
