❌ No-as-a-Service (NaaS)

Welcome to No-as-a-Service – the graceful, sarcastic, Shakespearean, and multilingual way to say "no".

Because sometimes, just "No" isn't enough.

---

🧐 What is this?

No-as-a-Service (NaaS) is a lightweight C# API that serves various humorous, polite, blunt, or dramatic versions of the word "no". Designed for developers who want to decline things elegantly in their apps, tools, or hearts.

---

🛠️ Features

• Say "no" in multiple languages (en, de)
• Say "no" in various styles (sarcastic, shakespeare, corporate, http, etc.)
• RESTful API design – easy to consume
• Can be used in frontend apps, Slack bots, browser extensions, or just when you're tired of saying it yourself
• Totally unnecessary, yet completely essential

📦 Example Response

{
  "message": "Absolutely not.",
  "language": "en",
  "style": "default"

🧠 Why tho?

Because your users, clients, friends, or enemies deserve more than just a boring "no".
Let the API do the talking.
