[Frankfurter](https://www.frankfurter.app) is a free and open-source currency data API that tracks reference exchange rates published by the European Central Bank.
I host a public instance of the API at `api.frankfurter.app`.
## Getting Started

```http
GET /latest HTTP/1.1
```
Get rates for a past date.
```http
GET /2000-01-03 HTTP/1.1
```
Get rates for a period.
```http
GET /2010-01-01..2010-01-31 HTTP/1.1
```
