I’m happy to announce that I finally registered “my” package: [StravaAPI.jl](https://github.com/cserteGT3/StravaAPI.jl). [Strava](https://www.strava.com/) is one of the most popular activity (mostly running, cycling, hiking) tracking/social media app and as the name suggests this package let’s you use its [API](https://developers.strava.com/). The package is currently waiting for its 3 days before it can be merged into the general registry.

Why? I always envy python users, that they have these API packages (like [stravalib](https://pypi.org/project/stravalib/), that they can just `pip install`. We have `Pkg.add`, so we deserve that too!

Why “my” package? Because it is generated by OpenAPI.jl (thank you! \<3), I just packaged it, and extended its documentation.

How to use it? Check out the [docs](https://csertegt3.github.io/StravaAPI.jl/dev/)! You’ll need to get an API key, but after that, it’s just a few lines of code.

If you have any comments, questions or suggestions, please let me know!

I strongly believe that successful package snnouncements add a bit if context to the package.  
In this case, “strava” seems to be an app to track and share physical activities.

You’re right! Often I check announcements and have to do some search as well. I’ve updated the post. Thank you for your feedback!
