Fetch the same bytes

The static files are identical to what the API returns, but with no rate limit and no server round trip. Use the API when you want a query and a content type; use the files when you want to cache one document.

curl "https://yjtoon.com/api/dataset/sql-query-types?format=toon"
const res = await fetch(
  "https://yjtoon.com/static-data/dataset/sql-query-types.toon"
);
const toon = await res.text();
