REST works in open-sourced and private application development projects needs to go through this course and absorb all of its content. Anyone desiring to learn how REST is implemented in clients and servers needs the knowldege, demonstrations, and practice presented in this course. This not only includes web, mobile, and service application developers, but also architects, UI designers, testers, and administrators. This course provides a solid understanding of how to effectively participate in a project leveraging REST API’s both as consumers and providers.

Before taking this course, a student should ideally (but not absolutely) have:A at least a modest knowledge of HTML, web server use and configuration, and JavaScript. Ideally, the student should be familiar with creating servers with nodeJS. If the student has only some, or even none of these skills, he/she will still benefit from this course greatly, but may need to pause a video in progress to perform some additional background research. This is encouraged, as it’ll only make for a better overall experience and net benefit.

• NO REST EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED!!!
