Find a list of popular Steam appIDs.

Steam Popular AppIDs

This repository contains Python code to fetch a list of popular Steam appIDs.

I have a comprehensive list of ~30k appIDs, but my web app struggles with it. My objective with this repository is to shorten the list by filtering out the less popular appIDs.

Requirements

• Install the latest version of Python 3.X.
• Install the required packages:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

To fetch a list of popular Steam appIDs, run:

python fetch_popular_appids.py
