# MIME Type Reference

This project provides a quick and easy way to browse and search for official IANA-registered MIME types. It consists of two main parts:

1.  A Python script (`fetcher.py`) that downloads the latest MIME type registration data from the official IANA website.
2.  A self-contained HTML file (`index.html`) that displays the data in a clean, searchable, and user-friendly interface.

## Features

-   **Up-to-date Data**: Fetches data directly from IANA's official sources.
-   **Categorized View**: Organizes MIME types by category (text, image, application, etc.).
-   **Obsolete/Deprecated Handling**: Separately categorizes and displays obsolete or deprecated types for clarity.
-   **Live Search**: Instantly filter all categories with a single search bar.
-   **Zero Dependencies**: The `index.html` file is completely self-contained and requires no external libraries or frameworks.

## How to Use

### 1. Fetch the Data

To get the latest MIME types, run the Python script. This will download the data from IANA and create a `mime_types.json` file in the same directory.

You will need `aiohttp` to run the script:

```bash
pip install aiohttp
python fetcher.py
```

### 2. View the Data

Simply open the `index.html` file in any modern web browser. It will automatically load the `mime_types.json` file and display the data.

You can now browse the categories or use the search bar to find specific MIME types.
