FAQ should be updated to say there is in fact now an API.

On the page https://en.wiki.tatoeba.org/articles/show/faq is the section "Does Tatoeba provide an API?" with the answer "No, it does not (yet)."

In fact, it does, as described on https://en.wiki.tatoeba.org/articles/show/api

The FAQ should be updated to say "Yes, it does!" and link to this other page.

I suspect that it still doesn't actually work.

the api itself works, it's just that it can't be accessed by javascript from other websites
so it's still useful for e.g. python scripts or mobile apps, just not web apps (that don't have their own server)

I updated the FAQ :)

Oh that's amazing news!

I remember that I wanted to use the API (even appeared on video haha) but lately I've been (hyper)focused on the Raku programming language... now, I might be able to get the two together and make a Raku module for the Tatoeba API. ;)
