The WordPress REST API

The WordPress REST API is a huge breakthrough in the evolutionary process of WordPress as a CMS from one side, and as a fully-fledged application framework from another side. We will try to cover most of the features and practical uses of this API so that there aren't any unclear points left behind. At this very stage, the REST API has undergone a thorough evolution phase from being just an idea supported by one person to a global API that is considered to make it within the core in the nearest future, it being backed up not only a solid team of developers constantly working on improving it but also by its separate mini-community within the larger WordPress one.
