Delft University of Technology

aid: tu-delft
name: Delft University of Technology
description: 'Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) is the largest and oldest public technical university in the Netherlands,
  ranked #51 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public developer footprint centers on research and library data
  infrastructure rather than a unified developer portal: the 4TU.ResearchData repository (data.4tu.nl), which TU Delft co-founded
  and leads, exposes a public REST API (v2/v3, the open-source "djehuty" platform) plus OAI-PMH metadata harvesting; the TU
  Delft Repository (repository.tudelft.nl) publishes open-access theses and research output with OAI-PMH metadata; and TU
  Delft operates a NetID/OAuth2 single sign-on identity service. TU Delft historically ran a general institutional API platform
  at api.tudelft.nl (campus, buildings, courses, education and organisation data) secured with OAuth2, but that platform has
  been publicly announced as being suspended with no new client registrations accepted, so it is documented here as gated/legacy.'
