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

API: Nasjonalbiblioteket ~ digitized collection search
Provider: Nasjonalbiblioteket (National Library of Norway)
Endpoint: GET https://api.nb.no
It returns JSON.

Source: Nasjonalbiblioteket (National Library of Norway) (https://api.nb.no/)
Source type: Official open-data catalogue
Endpoint type: Open-data catalogue JSON
Integration difficulty: Copy-paste ready
Last checked: 2026-07-05
Production caveat: Still handle empty rows, schema changes, pagination, stale coverage, and temporary upstream failures.

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.
