Summary

We have now covered REST API in theory and practice at length. Earlier chapters had taught you a good deal about WordPress REST API and coding. You learnt how to build and manage posts, metadata, apps and a lot more.

This chapter gave you a basic crash course in REST API and its history as well as its future. Of course, for a pure developer, this might not be absolute mandatory to know. But if you wish to know all that there is to know about REST API, this chapter provided useful reading.

We shall now cover the remnants of WP REST API in the final chapter.
