The objective of Mashape is to centralize the access to APIs by creating something akin to a cloud environment in which everything becomes instantly available to consumers and third party developers alike.
Developers can push the every component of their APIs to the Mashape cloud and begin enjoying the exposure and the traction if that is what they want, and the site actually goes one step beyond and lets people generate APIs for what they do in the event they are lacking one.
This is done by downloading the provided Mashape library, and letting it guide you through a process that is nowhere as difficult as creating the API all by yourself. You have to choose a logo, add a description, pick a general category for the API…
And once the API has been created and uploaded to the site, not only will it become findable using the provided search interface but it might also be featured on the homepage, for all to see and (hopefully for you) download .
