Benefits of using Rest APIs

Let's quickly dive into some key benefits of using REST APIs,

Benefit	Description
Simple and Easy to Use	REST APIs use standard HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE), making them easy to understand and use. They also reduce the learning curve and encourage adoption.
Statelessness	In stateless communication, each request from a client to a server contains all the information needed to understand and process the request, making it easy for server implementation. This also makes your application scalable.
Interoperable	REST APIs use standard protocols and data formats, such as HTTP, JSON, and XML. This makes your application easily implementable in different technologies and operating systems.
Uniform Interface	REST APIs provide a consistent and predictable way to interact with resources, promoting simplicity and reducing the complexity of the client.
Security	REST APIs use standard security protocols such as HTTPS, creating a secured communication channel for your application.
Platform Independence	REST APIs are platform-independent, allowing your application to communicate among different types of clients like web, mobile, desktop, and so on.
