The problem

You enjoy consume doujin sites to build web applications. There are a lot sites that have effort especially pururin, simply-hentai and etc, not official api available nor public resource that can be used for everyone. Instead making lot of abstraction and enumerating them manually, You can rely on jandapress to make less of pain. The current state is FREE to use, meant all anonymous usage is allowed no aunthentication required and CORS was enabled.

The solution

Features

• Gather the most doujin sites
• Objects taken that are consistent structure, almost
• Objects taken is re-appended to make extendable
• All in one: get, search, and random methods
• In the future we may implement JWT authentication
• Pure scraping, except nh sigh..
