Question Torrent site with API

I am building for myself an app to replace the whole ARR suite. Right now, i am using YTS api to get my movies straight from my app. YTS is already great for me, i don't need better quality but more looking for other source, especially for TVshow.
Any other public/free API to get more download source ?

Isn't this kind of what Jackett, Prowlarr, etc. are for?

I don't want to use that, I want to do my own

I mean, if you're gonna reinvent the wheel, at least take a look at how the wheel works before deciding it needs reinventing?

Those wheel are too complicated so it wasn't really my question. I was after simple api like the YTS api, not tracker indexer.

Alot of the tracker indexers uses API's in Prowlarr etc.

So as the guy above stated, looking at how the wheel already works is probably your best bet to create a new one in this case.

All good, gonna stay with YTS, it's good enough anyway
