Search Gifs API

Search through hundreds of thousands of gifs to match any reaction you want. The gifs are returned in a list with the URL, width, and height of the gif.

This API wraps the search gifs endpoint by Humor API. Check out the tutorial about writing a joke and meme app using this API.

This is how you're going to look after realizing the power of the Gif API :)
