Help needed in finding a replacement to the mobile-friendly page content Rest API for my web app
Hello All,
For my website webnomads.in I have been using mobile-friendly page content Rest API for years . Now that it has been stopped I am struggling to find a new suitable API as I was displaying the content in sections .
On various pages I read about making use of parsoids .
While I have explored the different API offerings , I could not find any API which is delivering the text based on sections . I will be very thankful if someone can guide me or point me to any article showing the use of Parsoid or any other way to deliver page content in text form and in sections .
Thanks in advance .
Regards
Harsh

Thanks Srishti for taking the first pass answering this question.

I've created a Wikitech page to centralize the information about
alternatives and reasoning behind the MCS deprecation
https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/MCS_decommission

I hope that helps, and we can use it to add more information as we learn
moving forward.

Cheers,
Mateus Santos
