More Examples, Do's, Dont's for being/ not being RESTful

Open vanthome opened this issue 11 years ago • 1 comments

From David Booth: I would suggest adding a small, simple REST example, perhaps even showing "DO"s and "DON'T"s. For example, show what it means to have the server return a set of links for the possible client next steps, as opposed to having a fixed URL pattern. Programmers hear abstract platitudes REST all the time -- what it is and isn't -- but they need to know concretely (through simple examples) how to do REST properly.

I am looking forward to your presentation on thursday. Regarding the examples, I found this discussion very helpful on how to design REST properly: websites vs apis and Turning passive APIs into active APIs Maybe you could include some insights in your presentation?
