Crunchbase API

Hi everyone!

Working on a little (Web Design/API) project and am kind of stuck at this point. Hoping that some one can point me in the correct direction...at least kind of give me a decent place to start (if, by the questions I am asking, you can tell this is too advanced for me, it'd be great to know that as well).

Here is what I am trying to do:

  • Pull data from Crunchbase using their API and display the data on my site.
  • The hope is that I could pull information based on company "Category"

Here is what I am trying to do:

Here is what I have right now:

  • basic html/css setup (bootstrap)
  • mamp installed
  • crunchbase api key

Here is a bit more info about the Crunchbase API:

  • provides a RESTful interface to the data found on CrunchBase.
  • response is in JSON format.
  • Crunchbase API Link

Not looking for someone to do this for me, obviously. Would really appreciate some pointers on where I should go from here

Thanks so much! Brett Bivens
