The service which accepts and deals information about yourself.

i

A simple microservice that serves you data about you.

🤔 What is this for?

A personal touch goes a long way in an online interactions, where things can feel disconnected or distant. This is meant to serve as a hub for personal data to which I can use to build personal interactions with on my projects.

❓ How does this work?

Through the Shortcuts application on my iOS device, and other on-hand physical device integrations such as smart watches, IoT devices, and more, I'm able to send data to this API to which it can be readily served on projects.

Current iOS Shortcuts

You can install these on your own devices, and use this project as you please to build similar integrations. Most of these work well in automations which activate automatically, sans-prompt at sunrise, sunset, or at any point in the day.

• Send Generalized Location
  • This template will allow you to send an API request to the /location endpoint with the generalized location information of the device it is run on.
