Hello,

I've launched a small webapp (http://www.trackabatch.com) which sends reminders for upcoming homebrew/wine/mead making todos (i.e. Time To Bottle Pale Ale #55)

If I created a 3rd party API for the site, would anyone be interested in incorporating this functionality into their product?

I'm envisioning an API that accepts BeerXML tags like name, date, primary_age, secondary_age, age etc., then my webapp would figure out the corresponding days from the start date and send the email reminders on those days. Potentially, this could all happen with the click of a button for your users in your product.

I'd appreciate your thoughts!

Thanks,
Bill

Hey Bill, that's a really cool idea!  We are developing an Android app that could probably make good use of 3rd party APIs if you developed them.  We are close to being done with the free version, which will be a read-only recipe viewer.  But the paid version we plan to develop will include designing recipes along with having brewday calculators and such.... I can see this one making good use of APIs if you provide some.  I have no timeline on when we'd be ready to use any and it will likely be some time before we get to it.  Things get in the way of making quicker progress like life, work, etc... you know. :)

Thanks Paul - I appreciate the feedback and glad that you see potential in the service. Currently, I plan to keep my webapp free but charge users (not integrators) for API access. I'd really be interested in integrating the service to your brewing app, drop me an email when you can: bill at my webapp dot com

And no worries about timelines, my progress is slow and steady myself (also have a baby due next month) :)
