1. What is the Rest API ?

We begin by understanding the fundamental concepts of RESTful API architecture, comparing Django to Django Rest Framework (DRF), and exploring JSON formatting. We'll also discuss the latest trends in web development and guide you through the installation and project setup process.

3. Views and Routers

Next, we'll explore views and routers in DRF. We'll cover class-based views, their significance, and the built-in views provided by Django Rest Framework. Routers play a vital role in API routing, and we'll provide a comprehensive overview of how to utilize them effectively with DRF's API router.

4. HTTP Request Methods

Understanding HTTP request methods is essential for building robust APIs. We'll cover GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE methods, along with their practical applications. Additionally, we'll discuss HTTP response status codes and their significance in API development.

What is JSON ?

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data interchange format that is easily readable by both humans and machines. It's text-based and used to represent structured data in the form of objects (similar to dictionaries in Python). JSON is language-independent and supported by many programming languages, including Python.

JSON can be used in various contexts, especially in web development for data exchange between client and server.

As you can see JSON syntax is very similar to dictionaries in python.

The Role of JSON in Django REST Framework

Data Exchange Format: In the context of web APIs, JSON serves as the standard format for sending and receiving data. DRF uses JSON for serialization and deserialization of data, meaning converting data from Django models to JSON format and vice versa;
Client Compatibility: Since JSON integrates seamlessly with JavaScript, it is an excellent choice for transferring data between web applications (clients) and servers using DRF;
Flexibility: JSON allows for easy representation of complex data structures, which is important for APIs that may include nested objects, lists, and other complex data types.

The use of JSON in Django REST Framework is crucial for creating efficient and easily integrated web APIs. JSON not only simplifies data exchange between server and client but also provides flexibility and broad compatibility, essential in modern web development.
