Access Yale Dining data with ease!
The Yale Menus API (formerly YaleDine) provides an open, standards-compliant interface that developers can use to access Yale Dining's dining hall and menu data. It replaces Yale Dining's deprecated official API, and scrapes data from Yale Dining's occupancy statistics page, the new JAMIX menus website, and various other sources, compiling it together and cleaning it up for presentation in a polished and developer-friendly API that can easily be used for your projects.
