REST APIs: How They Work and What You Need to Know

To understand REST, we need to review some key terms first:

A clientis a person or program using the API. The client makes requests to the API in order to retrieve some information or change something within the application. Your web browser is a client — it interacts with APIs. The requested info is sent back to your browser and displayed on your screen.
A resource is any piece of information that the API can provide the client. For instance, a resource in Facebook’s API could be a user, a page, a photo, or a post. Each resource has a unique name, called the resource identifier.
A server is used by the application that receives client requests and contains resources that the client wants. The server has an API to interact with clients without giving them direct access to content stored in its database.

Now for our definition. REST is a set of guidelines that software can use to communicate over the internet in order to make integrations simple and scalable. A REST API (also called a “RESTful” API) is a specific type of API that follows these guidelines.

You will learn

How Rest API works
API development and management for mobile apps i.e Android, Iso
API to power your React and Angular frontend Apps
CI/CD with Digital Ocean Apps platform
Constant updates and upgrades to new technologies as relates to Api development with flask
Learn how to secure your API using JWT token
Logging for error detection and app insights

Together, we will develop a student management project which will encompass all the great topics covered in the course of the lectures
