REST

REST, or Representational State Transfer, is a method used for web services that allows different systems to communicate over the internet. It uses standard web protocols like HTTP to request and exchange data. RESTful services operate on resources, which can be any data or object, and are accessible through unique URLs. Clients interact with these resources using specific actions such as GET (retrieve), POST (create), PUT (update), or DELETE (remove). This approach is widely used due to its simplicity, scalability, and flexibility, making it easier for developers to create and manage web applications.
