Fast Country Data Lookup - Secure & API-First
Originally published on PEAKIQ

Country codes, flags, and dial prefixes in one clean place.
A security-hardened country lookup experience for countrycode.peakiq.in, built to stay fast, cache-friendly, and API-first.
The raw JSON dataset is protected — search returns only limited matching results instead of exposing the full country list in a single response.
What it does
This country code tool helps developers find dial codes, ISO country codes, unicode flags, and inline SVG flag markup through a searchable web interface and REST API.
Example — India
| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Dial code | +91 |
| ISO code | IN |
| Unicode | U+1F1EE U+1F1F3 |
Features
🔒 Protected dataset
The raw JSON file is hidden. Search fetches only a small set of matching results, so the full country list is never exposed in a single response.
🏳️ Inline flag preview
SVG flags are rendered inline — browsing countries no longer requires a separate flag asset request per country.
⚡ Local-first browsing
After the first page load, search and filtering stay lean so the project remains a clean public showcase.
🛠️ API access
Use code-based endpoints instead of downloading the full dataset.
GET /api/country/IN → lookup a single country
GET /api/countries?search=india → search matching countries
Live endpoints:
Browsing
Type at least 2 characters to fetch a small set of matching countries from the API.
