What is this?
This is an API that provides JSON endpoints for over 13,000 kanji using data from an extensive kanji dictionary.
This API uses the EDICT and KANJIDIC dictionary files. These files are the property of the Electronic Dictionary Research and Development Group, and are used in conformance with the Group's licence.
JLPT level information comes from Jonathan Waller's JLPT Resources page.
This page is built using mithril.js.
