-## Description

-

-This web application, built with the Next.js framework, relies on data fetched from the Consumet API. The anime section benefits from server-side rendering, ensuring efficient performance. To maintain uniformity, both the kdrama and manga sections have been updated to utilize server-side rendering (SSR), aligning them with the architecture of the anime section.

+## Introduction

+Dramalama is a web application designed to provide detailed information about various entertainment media including Anime, K-Dramas, Movies, and Web Series. The application fetches data from various sources and displays it in an organized and user-friendly manner.

 

 ## Features

+## Data Sources

+Dramalama fetches data from multiple APIs to provide comprehensive and up-to-date information on various entertainment media.

 

-#### Anime

+### Anime

+- **API:** [Consumet](https://github.com/consumet/api.consumet.org)

 

--   The homepage displays top airing anime and recent episode releases.

--   Users have the option to search for anime titles.

--   Due to server-side rendering, requests are cached. This means that if a user visits a specific episode of an anime and then tries to revisit it, the page will load instantly. This caching benefits other users who are attempting to watch the same anime.

--   Vidstack serves as the video player.

 

-#### Manga

+### K-Dramas

+- **API:** [Dramacool API](https://dramacool-scraper.vercel.app) and [Consumet](https://github.com/consumet/api.consumet.org)

+- Endpoints:

+  - Popular: `/popular`

+  - Recent: `/recent`

 

--   Users can search for mangas/manhwa by their title

--   A good looking info page

--   ~~Ability to download mangas in `.pdf` format~~

 

-## Content Guidelines

+### Movies and Series

+- **API:** [The Movie Database (TMDb) API](https://www.themoviedb.org/documentation/api)

 

-Dramalama doesn't stores any data. It fetches it data through Consumet API which in turns scrapes other websites to get that stream. If you have any problem, then try contacting the owner of those websites.
