freeCodeCamp does not have a working API. There is an API in development here. Quincy responded to my question about this on freeCodeCamp forums, and indicated that there is not a current API and there is work to be done on rolling out the new version of FCC and other improvements before the API becomes a priority. @ameliejyc and I think that an alternative would be to scrape the user's profile page and compare the completed challenges on it with a list of the challenges in each section in the prereq requirements. This will involve significantly more work than just querying the API. We may need to increase the time allowed for this issue up from 4h.
