I'm building an app using a free Netherlands API (no auth needed).

API: PDOK Locatieserver ~ free Dutch geocoding & address search
Provider: PDOK / Kadaster (BZK)
Endpoint: GET https://api.pdok.nl/bzk/locatieserver/search/v3_1/
It returns JSON (live data).

Source: PDOK / Kadaster (BZK) (https://github.com/PDOK/locatieserver/wiki/API-Locatieserver)
Source type: Official public feed
Endpoint type: Direct public JSON endpoint
Integration difficulty: Copy-paste ready
Last checked: 2026-07-05
Production caveat: Still handle downtime, changing fields, empty responses, and rate limits before shipping user-facing alerts.

Help me fetch this and build a simple page that displays it nicely. Include basic production safeguards for errors, empty responses, schema changes, caching, and rate limits.
