Lyrist is a simple yet powerful RESTful API for getting lyrics of any song using the song's name and its artist's name. It's easy to use and just works. To prevent misuse of the API, every user is rate limited to 50 requests per hour based on their IP address.
You can play with the APIhere. Fun Fact: I had created this API as a starting project for learning Next.js.

• Next.js as Framework.
• Tailwind CSS for Styling.
• LyricsDumper for getting lyrics.
• Vercel for Deploying.
