For me, that was the best no bullshit explanation someone has been able to deliver thus far. It made sense, it was simple, and concise - thank you.

I've been trying to understand restful apis for a few months now, and since I have an interview tomorrow, thought I'd try to get it one more time. I can't believe after 1 video I've finally got it. Thank you for making it so simple and easy to understand.

Rest api has always sounded intimidating and like something I would learn later. Youre the first person to say it in plain enough english for me to realize I already do this stuff lol

I've watched like a dozen videos on APIs (including that big 3-hour course) and this was by far the most useful, concise, and illustrative one, big props!

This was the most lucid explanation of Restful APIs I've watched. Thank you so much Mosh.

I taught I would never understand API's until I watch this video.

Damn, I wish all instructors are like Mosh
