TransRest_API 🏳️‍⚧️

A repo for Transgender Affirmations.

Note: This API is running on a FREE plan which is 500 hours per month of active run time. If and when the run time is >500 hours it shuts down and needs to be restarted the following month. So if this API is not working, then this is why.

Genesis 🏳️‍⚧️

The idea is a combination of a conversation about Transgender people needing to take a break and rest. The word association of rest is Restful API, then Trans + Rest + API became TransRest_API.
