About
What this is
staticdata.dev is a CDN of reference datasets that don't change often but matter every day: country codes, currencies, timezones, HTTP status codes, MIME types, and similar. Each dataset is published as JSON, CSV, and a typed TypeScript export at a stable, immutable URL, plus a human-readable documentation page.
The contract is simple: once a URL is published under /v1/, it never changes shape. New versions get new paths. Your code can rely on the data being there at the same address with the same schema for as long as your code runs.
No API keys, no auth, no rate limits, no tracking beyond aggregate analytics. Cross-origin headers are open. Files are served from the edge with year-long immutable caching.
Who runs it
Solo project. Maintained by a single developer.
Sustainability
Hosting is free at the current scale. The project is open source under the MIT license. If you find the data useful, the best way to support it is to use it and tell other developers.
Reliability commitments
/v1/<slug>.<ext>URLs are immutable. Their content does not change.- Schema-incompatible updates ship under a new version path. The old path keeps serving the old data.
- Uptime SLO is informal. The CDN's edge is the limiting factor.
How to suggest a dataset
Email hello@staticdata.dev with a short description of the dataset, where the source data lives, and the licensing. We accept datasets that are reference-grade (a stable, citable source exists) and broadly useful (more than a few applications would plausibly need them).
We do not accept datasets that are large enough to be databases (cities, postal codes, airports), datasets that require frequent updates (exchange rates, stock tickers), or datasets where licensing is unclear.
