FAQ
Do I need an API-Key?
I'm citing the HackerNews-GitHub account here "There is currently no rate limit." - https://github.com/HackerNews/API#uri-and-versioning
What do I have to be aware of?
Currently this wrapper does not differentiate between Stories, Jobs, Polls or anything, I will implement this but for now theoretically a story under New, Top or Best could also be a poll or job-posting rather than an story and therefore the data might not be accurate.

Roadmap
- Implement Job-postings, polls, ask- and show-stories etc.
- There are a few things to implement, before this wrapper is complete..
