What it does
An alternative interface for MyAnimeList — one of the largest anime databases around. Browse the catalogue, search by genre and season, view show details, and manage your own watch list.
This was mainly a project to get to learn Vue, OAuth and data various concepts in data handling. It's rather dated by now.
Tech
- Vue — frontend framework
- Vercel serverless functions — proxies authenticated requests to the MAL API (required because MAL doesn't support browser CORS)
- MyAnimeList API — data source
The serverless layer is intentionally minimal — it just keeps the API key off the client and lets the browser make unrestricted calls.
Source is private. Deployed at mal-vue.vercel.app.
