<h1>REST API Best Practices</h1>
<p>Building restful web services, like other programming skills is <strong>part art, part science</strong>. As the Internet industry progresses, creating a REST API becomes more concrete, with emerging best practices. As RESTful Web services don't follow a prescribed standard except for HTTP, it's important to build your RESTful API in accordance with industry best practices to ease development and simplify client adoption.</p>
<p>Presently, there aren't a lot of REST API guides to help the lonely developer. <a href="http://www.restapitutorial.com">RestApiTutorial.com</a> is dedicated to tracking REST API best practices and making resources available to enable quick reference and self education for the development crafts-person. We'll discuss both the art and science of creating REST Web services.</p>
<p>Jump in with <a href="restquicktips.html">REST API Quick Tips</a>, a few overarching concepts (based on <a href="http://37signals.com/svn/posts/3018-api-design-for-humans" target="_blank">this post</a> from <a href="http://www.37signals.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">37 Signals</a>) created to get you started on the right track.</p>
