All the Star Wars data you’ve ever wanted:

Planets, Spaceships, Vehicles, People, Films and Species

From all six Star Wars films

One thing I do find missing are image resources to accompany each resource (GitHub issue here). That would make it a very nice one to integrate in my courses (Until then I’ll stick with my dummy MoviesDB API)
