Coronavirus vs Makeup

Coronavirus

A Pipedream-hosted proxy that returns confirmed-case, recovery, and death counts originally sourced from Johns Hopkins University's CSSE COVID-19 tracker, exposing global, mainland-China, and non-China summary stats plus the raw per-region breakdown as JSON at coronavirus.m.pipedream.net. JHU's underlying spreadsheet feed was retired on 2023-03-09, so the endpoint now serves that final historical snapshot on every request rather than live updates, cached via Pipedream's $checkpoint for 5 minutes. A live GET against the endpoint returns Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *, resolving the stored 'unknown' cors to 'yes'.

Makeup

Makeup API is a free, keyless single-endpoint REST service serving a static catalogue of cosmetics products — lipsticks, foundations, eyeshadows, and more — searchable by brand, product type, category, tag, price, and rating, with per-product image and retailer links. Still live on Heroku with no auth, no published rate limit, and no formal SLA; it's a hobby open-data project rather than a maintained commercial API. A live GET against makeup-api.herokuapp.com/api/v1/products.json succeeds over both http and https with no key, and returns Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * — resolving the stored 'unknown' cors to 'yes' and the stored 'https: false' to 'true'.
