If you've spent long enough writing web applications, you've had firsthand experience with an API, whether internal or external, that leaves you scratching your head at best and banging your head against the keyboard at worst. To be fair, it takes more than exposing your application's database via a CRUD interface to get an API that's truly a joy to work with. We'll look at patterns, affecting everything from HTTP methods to versioning, from authentication to response codes, that'll make your API happily boring rather than uniquely frustrating. Including when to use REST, and when to pick a different design pattern that better suits the task at hand.
