A book price comparison site built on 8 APIs

A first real coding project: a book price comparison site, leaning on third-party services for prices, for search, for book details, for currency conversion and for the hosting itself. Over 8 years those services shut down one by one until the site no longer worked. Called a fun project anyway, and an education in exactly this.
