This repository holds the source code of NetrunnerDB.

This is not where the cards data is

The data used by NetrunnerDB is at https://github.com/NetrunnerDB/netrunner-cards-json. If you want to fix a mistake in some card data, or add the data of a new card, you can submit a PR there. Also, that's where the localized data is.
