What is an API?

Suppose when you go to a restaurant and order your food to the waiter. The waiter goes to the kitchen and brings back your food. So, API is the same as the waiter. We as clients send a request to the server and the server responds back with our data. This communication is made possible using API.

I learned this amazing lesson at the API 101 session with Postman hosted by Mr. Rohit Purkait. It was an amazing experience and overall a great session. I also learned about CRUD operations and also followed along Rohit to perform CRUD operations via Postman.

I think joining these type of events is really helpful in understanding a lot of different topics and also to have a first hand experience trying out different things. So, I hope to join more session in near future.
