Designing a Solid API

Planning is Key

Before diving into code, take a step back and design your API. Here's what to
consider:

Target Audience: Who will be using your API? Understanding their needs is crucial.
API Goals: What functionalities will your API offer? What problem does it solve?
Data and Resources: What data will your API expose, and how will it be accessed?
Security: How will you ensure secure data exchange and prevent unauthorized access?
Think User-Friendly

Clear and Consistent Design: Strive for a well-defined API structure that's easy
for developers to understand and use.
Detailed Documentation: Provide comprehensive documentation that explains how to
use your API, including code samples and error codes.
By following these guidelines, you can design an API that is both powerful and
user-friendly.
