A collection of world country reference data published as simple JSON files, covering attributes like names, capitals, currencies, calling codes, geo coordinates, flags, and population. It is distributed via npm, Composer, or git for use in any programming language.
Use cases
- get a list of countries with capitals in json
- country calling codes dataset for a form dropdown
- currency codes and names per country
- geo coordinates of countries for a map app
- country flags and abbreviations for localization
- population and languages by country data
When to choose
- you need lightweight static country reference data in JSON
- you want a dependency-free dataset usable from any language
- you need many country attributes (tld, calling code, currency, coordinates) in one place
When to avoid
- you need frequently updated or highly accurate live statistics
- you need city-level or postal-code granularity
- you need a queryable database or API rather than static files
