NvidiaRtxStockChecker

❗ Notice

This application no longer works as it originally did. The API was changed shortly after it was discovered that people were using it to query stock levels. You can still download and run this application, I made a small commit that means it doesn't immediately crash on startup.

Description

A windows form application that queried the digital river stock endpoint for RTX 30XX cards.

This application was written at a time where 'clean' focused code wasn't nessecarily a priority for me, the only reason it still remains as a repository is for archival purposes and to demonstrate how my programming ability has changed.

What did this application do?

This was written when myself and others were attempting to obtain the RTX 30XX Graphics cards. Stock was released in EXTREMELY small amounts and at seemingly random times. It surfaced on the Nvidia subreddit that there was a public API (https://in-and-ru-store-api.uk-e1.cloudhub.io/DR/get-inventory/en_gb/5438792800?format=json&expand=availablequantity) that displayed the stock information for the RTX series of cards. Whilst it didn't give a certain indicator stock was about to drop, it did serve as an early warning that quantities had increased.

Improvements

There are no further planned improvements as this application is no longer being developed.
