I actively work with startups to leverage a REST style of architecture to effectively solve business and IT problems.

I come from New Zealand Aotearoa and am really interested in seeing what others are up to (in practice) on this side of the world.

The workshop I am running is based on materials in how to hypermedia.

Type: 5in5
Level: All
Description: GraphQL is good a showing client-side intent. I'll present a similar approach for hypermedia (in javascript). I'll also suggest a general purpose grammar that we could have but in practice probably don't need.
Background: It has become increasingly common to use HTTP for applications as well just browsing the Internet. A link-driven application discovers relevant resources at run time, using a shared vocabulary of link relations and internet media types to support a “follow your nose” style of interaction–just as a Web browser does to navigate the Web. This can be understood as an approach to hypermedia. These slides show what the essential code might look like.
Material covered: Domain code and client code
Links: API modelling
