API Design Study Repository 🚀

Welcome to the API Design Study Repository! This project is a hands-on exploration of API design patterns, covering REST API, GraphQL, and gRPC implementations across four popular frameworks: Node.js, Golang, Symfony, and Spring Boot.

✨ Features

• REST API: Comprehensive study of HTTP methods, request/response handling, and best practices.
• GraphQL: Efficient data retrieval with GraphQL schemas, resolvers, and queries.
• gRPC: Implementation of Protobuf-based gRPC server-client communication.

---

🌐 Frameworks Covered

• Node.js: JavaScript runtime for building scalable APIs.
• Golang: Lightweight and fast language for robust API services.
• Symfony: PHP framework with structured components and rich tools.
• Spring Boot: Java-based framework tailored for microservices and enterprise APIs.

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

Ensure you have the following installed:

• Node.js
• Go
• PHP
• Java (with Maven)
• Docker (for optional containerized services)

Setup

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/JawherKl/api-design-study.git

2. Navigate to a specific API type and framework:

   cd api-design-study/rest-api/nodejs

3. Install dependencies and start the server:

   npm install
   npm start
