# NHL API Documentation

---
## About this Project

This effort is purely to make it easier for stats nerds and the like to make
use of the wonderful trove of information the NHL provides to us but in a much
more digestible form. 

## Roadmap

Eventually build documentation on features such as cayenneExp which allows for 
retrieval of very complex documentation and perhaps even a more thorough set of 
documentation including examples in multiple common langages (such as using Swagger)

## Contributing

I am only one person so if you see something I have missed please feel free to 
open up a MR/PR and I will get it merged.  Generally speaking I get things done
in a few days as time permits between work and other obligations.

## Contact
