Hypermedia APIs are a step beyond RESTful APIs: they set you up well for the future of your API and versioning, and also help you create stable, elegant code. I'll walk you through how building a hypermedia API helped me in a recent project, and how we're using it for a new project.
I am a software developer at SmartLogic Solutions. I work on developing APIs and Android applications. I have spoken at my local Baltimore meetup, B’more on Rails, as well as Philly.rb and DCRug.
