What Will You Learn in This Course?

First of all, you’ll learn how APIs work: what they are, how they operate, and their features. In particular, you’ll learn about REST APIs!

It will then be time to put this into practice ⚙️; you’ll see how requests and responses are structured, and you’ll start making requests on an API to get your first bits of data. Then, you’ll use the GitHub API to create, modify, and delete resources directly on your GitHub profile.

Finally, you’ll use all of the knowledge you’ve gained in the first two parts to build your very first REST API.

Ready? Then see you in the next chapter, where you’ll discover just what an API is. 🙌
