# Discussion: I thought I'd share some of my work...

Hello,
I'm a pretty amateur programmer and I'm mostly interested in playing with the Glitch API and application development to brush up on my programming skills for future projects and my degree.
I've been interested in how to create a program in the .net that can use the API to fetch information that can be stored locally and accessed by the user... I thought I might create an offline wiki-like application for people to use while playing the game to look-up skill info or item information without having to search the wikis or the Glitch website.
I have written some code in C# in visual studio that can fetch data from the API and parse it. I would like to share it with the community just in case someone else might benefit from it.
MediaFire Account with the JSON.net parser and the whole project from Visual Studio 2010 here.
If you have any questions or would like to offer some help, let me know. At the moment, I've only got this much done (not a lot) but in time I might get the whole thing done along with a GUI.

Your description of what you want to do is pretty general; you might want to focus a bit more and build out something complete. Check out what others have done with the API and see where you can add something new: Glitch Strategy Wiki.
I would probably have taken a more unique approach with Glitch Atlas if I'd have known about the Glitch Resource Database before I started. While I do like the search and heatmap features I implemented, there is some overlap in functionality.
