Want to use APIs in the apps that you build, but not sure where to start? This is the course for you!

Unlike other courses about REST APIs, this course not only teaches how APIs work from a technicalstandpoint — it also provides practicaltips for using APIs in the apps that you build. After all, what good is the technical knowledge without the practical know-how to actually apply it?

You’ll learn the technicalaspects of REST APIs — things like: HTTP Requests & Responses, JSON, API authentication, and how computers communicate using the Request : Response cycle.

And just as importantly — you’ll acquire some practicaltips for using APIs in the apps that you build — things like: how to use Developer Resources (dev centers, dev accounts, SDKs, and docs), how to use tools like Postman, cURL, or API Explorers to try APIs without writing any code, and how to get help when you’re stuck.

You’ll explore API use cases, see actual APIs in action, and by the end of the course, be equipped to lead technical discussions about APIs and even more importantly — to use APIs in the apps that you build.

All this in less than 2 hours time! Ready to get started? Let’s goooooo!
