About the workshop with fitogram

This workshop will enable you to make clear decisions when designing your own REST APIs and avoid common AntiPatterns. We explore REST from its theoretical principles whilst providing practical rules of thumb you can apply day to day. Walk away with a clear understanding of REST and a concise rulebook to use for your own designs.

Among the areas we will cover are:

• Resource Modelling & Archetypes
• Request methods and how to use them
• Response codes
• URI design and query string
• Authentication
• Rules of good REST design & Common AntiPatterns
• Modeling complex actions & de-normalisation
• REST vs GraphQL vs RPC

In this workshop you will work on and have access to several example APIs provided by fitogram and N3XTCODER. In addition you will get exposed to tools such as OpenAPI (Swagger) for modeling and documenting your APIs.

What skills are required: Intermediate to advanced

• know how to code – be proficient in at least one programming language
• understand simple client/server interactions over HTTP
• Git (Basic to Intermediate)

We run two parallel workshops tracks in Cologne. Besides REST API we will have a frontend track and deep dive into React.js. This is a unique opportunity for frontend and backend developers to interact and to create genuine outcomes.
