StackSherlock Documentation

One REST API for the technology behind any domain. Plain GET requests, JSON back, works with any HTTP client. Here is everything you need to make your first call.

Quickstart

The base URL is https://api.stacksherlock.com. During the open beta you can call it without a key. Look up a domain's stack:

curl https://api.stacksherlock.com/domain/stripe.com

Run it the other way to build a list. This returns every domain we've seen using a technology:

curl https://api.stacksherlock.com/tech/React

{
  "technology": "React",
  "count": 1349,
  "domains": ["0020.link", "0025.link", "..."]
}

And to check the size of the index at any time:

curl https://api.stacksherlock.com/stats

{
  "domains_with_tech": 29796,
  "distinct_technologies": 893,
  "detections": 189857
}

Example response. The index refreshes daily, so the live numbers will be higher.
