SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Inconsistent API design, improper HTTP method usage, and lack of versioning lead to integration challenges, poor developer experience, and difficulties in evolving the backend.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • RESTful Design: Implement CRUD operations using appropriate HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT/PATCH, DELETE) and clear, plural resource nouns for URL structures.
  • API Versioning: Set up API versioning (e.g., /v1/users) to manage changes and ensure backward compatibility for existing clients.
  • Standardized Responses: Configure and return appropriate HTTP status codes (e.g., 200 OK, 201 Created, 400 Bad Request, 404 Not Found) and consistent error response formats.

Quick Start

Design a new RESTful API endpoint for GET /api/v1/products, including query parameters for filtering and pagination, and ensure appropriate HTTP status codes.
