Taki is a simple MAL API wrapper made for Kumiko as none of the API wrappers I found were neither as fast, or as streamlined as I would have liked them. This is my first interaction with node's Fetch API, json querying, jest, environment variables, and propper workflow Actions. With all of that listed, I don't know what I don't know and if there's any improvements as I develop this wrapper, please say so!
This is incredibly simple, all you have to do is head here. Inline with the section heading "Clients Accessing the MAL API", click the "Create ID" button. Once the required information has been filled out, all there is to do is agree to the license and click submit!
Now to find your Client ID, again under the section header "Clients Accessing the MAL API", click "Edit" and your Client ID will be listed there for you to copy and do whatever you will with it.
A more detailed post can be found here.
