Boards.ie API

    Hi,

    Quick question that's a touch geeky.

    Does Boards.ie expose any API for developers to use? Preferably REST with JSON?

    If not I think it could be a great idea. A few weeks ago I was working with a team at a hackathon on integrating Amazon Alexa on the new Echo devices. It was remarkably easy to provide in the home functionality to web service applications.

    It would allow the development community to interact with boards.ie and produce value with little effort.

    I guess I always could screenscape the site but that always makes it dependant on the HTML on the page.

    Much thanks,

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
