pipes
From IndieWeb
Pipes are a way of providing some value-add for IndieWeb tools that are useful as part of some other service.
Use Cases
- Some IndieWeb members prefer to have their Micropub servers fairly unintelligent, and instead extend its functionality through other services.
IndieWeb Examples
- https://eventbrite-mf2.herokuapp.com - a pipe to provide MF2-JSON for a given Eventbrite event
- https://meetup-mf2.herokuapp.com - a pipe to provide MF2-JSON for a given Meetup event
