Pathfinder-2e-API

Purpose

Provide a standardized set of Pathfinder Second Edition data for community use.

Goals

• Fast

Data Source

The API gets its data from the official SRD - Archives of Nethys. It caches data it retrieves for 20 minutes, which is tracked per item (e.g. the Human Ancestry will go stale separately from the Dwarf Ancestry).
