RESTful code

REST, or Representational State Transfer, is an architectural style for providing standards between computer systems on the web, making it easier for systems to communicate with each other. In the REST architectural style, the implementation of the client and the implementation of the server can be done independently without each knowing about the other.

Making Requests

  • an HTTP verb (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)
  • a header, which allows the client to pass along information about the request
  • a path to a resource
  • an optional message body containing data

JSON Server is a simple project that helps you to setup a REST API with CRUD operations very fast.

$ npm install -g json-server

create a new JSON file with name db.json
