Enable CORS

The GovData APIs do not have cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) enabled: While foreign servers can access the APIs, foreign websites can not do so, because the browsers enforce the same-origin policy (as part of a rather weird security design, in my opinion).

So, anyone who wants to publish a web app that uses the GovData portal must pay for the continuous operation of a web server. There are some free services like Heroku, where it is possible to host a server for free, but these are restricted in various ways. If CORS were enabled on the APIs, it would be possible to also access the API via static web apps. These are easier to develop, and hosting is free via lots of different services like Github pages, Netlify, Surge.sh, and others, without restrictions. Enabling CORS would not cause any security problems for the GovData portal.

I suppose that the target users of the APIs are from the civil society: pupils, students, hobby hackers, and the like. They do not have the money to host a server. Only enabling CORS would allow them to build and share apps that use the GovData APIs.

build out of the box

Link zu www.govdata.de in Github Settings

Es wäre super, wenn auf der Github-Projekt-Startseite direkt ein Link zu https://www.govdata.de/ stehen würde.
Das geht in den Settings und erscheint dann hier:

In dem Zuge könntet ihr auch Wiki und Projects deaktiveren, die scheinbar in diesem Git-Repo nicht verwendet werden. Dann muss man sie nicht erst anklicken um das zu sehen :).
