Description
While a plugins API exists, it's not a real API (doesn't return JSON for example) and it's not meant to be publicly used as much as it is. We should consider creating a real, proper plugin API meant for public usage.

Is there already any idea when this could be implemented? Currently trying/wanting to use it in a node.js application.

Does https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-json/wp/v2/plugin count as a proper API?
It's not perfect, but should do the job for now.

Replying to obenland:
Does https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-json/wp/v2/plugin count as a proper API?
I would like to note, that using plugins/wp-json/v2/plugin shouldn't be relied upon, and may be disabled or limited in ways in the future in the event it causes issues (It's not cached the same way as api.wordpress.org does)
Please try to use api.wordpress.org/plugins/info/* for most things, which IMHO, is plenty proper.'
I'm going to close this, purely because I don't think we actually need anything further here.
