InfluxDB

The entire app is written in Python, specifically in the ASGI webapp library Starlette, which is amazing for writing tiny API services like this. I also used SlowAPI as a rate limiter, just so my server doesn't explode.
I was tinkering with Python web frameworks and decided to get (slightly) serious, so I built an API-only webapp called wst. It's a pastebin that lets you store random JSON and share it with a link, but in this case it's API-only and designed for command-line use (particularly with httpie).
