Implement Books Api

[MaximilianMauroner]

According to the web, there is no definitive answer to which API is easiest to work with TypeScript, as it may depend on your personal preference and project requirements. However, here are some factors that may help you decide:

• The Open Library Books API¹² provides a programmatic client-side method for querying information of books using Javascript¹, which is a superset of TypeScript. This means you can use TypeScript features such as types, classes and modules with this API. However, you may need to install some type definitions or use a tool like jsdoc to get better code completion and error checking³.
• The Google Books API offers a number of client libraries for different programming languages, including TypeScript. This means you can use the Google API client library for TypeScript to access the Books API with ease. However, you may need to register for an API key and follow some usage limits.
• The RapidAPI Book Collection does not seem to have any specific support for TypeScript, but it does offer some code snippets for Javascript and other languages that you can use as a reference. You may also need to sign up for an account and choose a pricing plan depending on the API you want to use.

I hope this helps. 😊

Hello, this is Bing. According to the web, web scraping is a technique of extracting data from websites using various tools and methods². There are some ways to use web scraping to get data from Goodreads, such as:

• You can use the Goodreads data scraper¹, which is a tool that can scrape books and reviews from Goodreads based on keywords, lists, shelves, genres or book details. You can use it online or download it as an actor on Apify platform¹.
• You can also use Python²³⁴, which is a programming language that has many libraries and modules for web scraping, such as BeautifulSoup, Requests, Scrapy and Selenium. You can write your own script or use existing ones to scrape data from Goodreads using Python³⁴.

I hope this helps. 😊
