TheMusicTreeAPI

  • GitHub stars for BehindTheMusicTree/the-music-tree-api
Work in Progress

The RESTful API companion to GrowTheMusicTree, providing developers and researchers access to genre hierarchy, metadata, and intelligent genre detection. Built with Django REST Framework and PostgreSQL.

Treat it as the contract between our data model and every client: consistent genre trees, detection you can build on, and room to grow personalization and recommendations without forking the truth. If you ship a player, a research tool, or an internal dashboard, this API is where structure and smarts stay in sync with what users see in the tree.
