Credits

Simple xAPI is based on the following projects:

• D7 Tincan API, written by nve
• Unofficial D8 Tincan API port (github), written by devtherock

Reasons for starting a new d.o. project include:

• the "Tincan API" spec has been renamed to xAPI in 2016
• the D8 port needs a fair amount of cleanup and fixing of deprecated code
• the D8 port relies on jQuery, a dependency we'd like to eliminate
• both projects were stalled and/or abandoned
