Serve the api link over https instead of http

[MicahBala]

Could you serve the api links over https instead of http. Calling the universities api from a live application hosted over https (on netlify.com) yields error - App.js:42 Mixed Content: The page at 'https://quizzical-engelbart-ad57cc.netlify.app/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure resource 'http://universities.hipolabs.com/search?country=Nigeria'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

Hey, clearly they have not made this possible yet. How did you get around this? Did you find another api I can't seem to find any online. Let me know!

I fetched the json data from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Hipo/university-domains-list/master/world_universities_and_domains.json and then convert their searching algorithm from Python to JavaScript. There are a lot JavaScript libraries that you can use too.

can you hit the raw json file with an axious request like you would hit the http endpt? it works locally for me but not sure its working over a server

It worked fine for me on the server.
