goodXtausch

======================

goodXtausch helps to search for books, games and other items on tauschticket.de based on a goodreads shelf, amazon or steam wishlist and returns the search result for each item as a table in a html page.

Since, as of December 8th 2020, Goodreads no longer issues new developer keys for the public developer API and plans to retire the current version of these tools (more info here). First approch using selenium is now replaced by a .csv export.
