A Quote API powered by GitHub Pages.
Due to me being a cheapskate and deploying this on github pages the content type of the response is text/html however the response is JSON.
Base URL: https://harryemartland.github.io/quote-api
To get a random quote, first make a request to / then randomly chose an integer number within the range returned by total.
Then make a request to /{number} with the random number.
CORs is enabled for GitHub pages so you can use this on your own webpages. An example can be found here.
