In modern software development, Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are essential for building scalable and flexible systems. APIs enable applications to communicate and exchange data, amongst other actions.
Representational State Transfer (REST) is an API specification for building simple, scalable, client-server APIs based on HTTP, stateless, cacheable, and layered.
RESTful APIs provide a medium for interaction between software components, easing the building process of distributed applications. However, building RESTful APIs can be daunting, especially for beginners; that’s where the Gorilla Mux package comes in handy.
The Gorilla Mux package is a powerful HTTP router and dispatcher that simplifies building RESTful APIs.
