The fastest way to make a prototype useful is often to connect it to real data. The Public APIs directory gives you a place to find that data, and Claude Code can help you turn the provider’s documentation into a working feature. This guide includes the repo from the PUB reel, a small weather example, and prompts you can reuse with other APIs.
