  ,In todayâ€™s market, where rival web services compete for attention, a well-designed REST API is a must-have feature. This concise book presents a set of API design rules, drawn primarily from best practices that stick close to the Webâ€™s REST architectural style. Along with rules for URI design and HTTP use, youâ€™ll learn guidelines for media types and representational forms.,
  ,REST APIs are ubiquitous, but few of them follow a consistent design methodology. Using these simple rules, you will design web service APIs that adhere to recognized web standards. To assist you, author Mark MassÃ© introduces the Web Resource Modeling Language (WRML), a conceptual framework he created for the design and implementation of REST APIs.,
