Episode notes

This chapter explores the concept of using schema to interpret representations and how it relates to the flexibility of hypermedia APIs compared to REST APIs. It also features an interview with the VP of Product Management at Sentry, discussing their developer-friendly application monitoring platform and its unique features.

Jerod is back with another “It Depends” episode! This time he’s joined by Kris Brandow from Go Time and they’re talking all things API design. What makes a good API? Is GraphQL a solid choice? Why do we do REST wrong? And WTF does HATEOAS mean, anyway?
