Now a days everybody is talking about REST. Here I does not mean by taking rest after some work; it is about Representational State Transfer. After searching a lot about REST and reading many articles I was still unable to completely understand actually what is REST? Today I was searching on internet for something related to Ruby on Rails and accidentally I have found an article (later I came to know that it is a series of articles) about implementing REST with Ruby on Rails on Softies on Rails . This website is to help the .NET programmers who want to learn Ruby on Rails. I have liked the articles a lot. Now I am not so confused about REST as I was earlier. The articles are written in such a easy language that a very new programmer can also understand. Although the articles are specially related to Rails but anyone can take benefit of them.
The tutorial is in 5 parts, the links are as following –
1. Part 1 – Understanding Resource 2. Part 2 – A Million APIs 3. Part 3 – RESTful Design 4. Part 4 – Routing 5. Part 5 – Respond!
I will recommend these articles to anyone who wants to know about REST.
