I'm having a friend write for me a desktop application that pulls price data from coinmarketcap and shows it on your screen. We'll see how it goes maybe I'll share it if it's worthy of public use.
What operation system it uses? Please if you decide to publish it, make post to this thread. Thanks
coinmarketcap public API doesn't really give you that many information. they will just give you pretty basic stuff like the current price, total volume, available supply and marketcap and their ranks!
you get much more information from the website itself!
you can see what they offer in these two links:
