Breaking Bad API

This app shows the main cast of the Breaking Bad show, loaded from the TVmaze API, and lets you search for any character or actor.

Live demo: https://breakingbadapp.vercel.app/

Made with

• Bootstrap 5
• Vanilla JavaScript
• TVmaze API (cast of show 169)

The app originally used breakingbadapi.com, which has since shut down. Data now comes from TVmaze and is used under its CC BY-SA license.

Running locally

It's a static site with no build step or dependencies. Serve the repository root with any static file server, for example:

npx serve .
# or
python3 -m http.server 8000

Then open the printed URL (e.g. http://localhost:8000). You can open index.html directly from disk too, but some browsers restrict fetch and audio for file:// pages.

Features

• Lists each main character with the actor and the actor's birthday (hover over a card, or focus it with the keyboard)
• Filters by character or actor name as you type
• Theme music with a play/pause button (browsers may block autoplay until you interact with the page)
