      My biggest challenge is asking for help. When you never been on a team or in an office setting (Tractor-Trailer driver by day student by night)it’s really hard to get over the team of me mindset while in programming it’s more about teamwork because no one person has all the answers. Great video you really simply things.

    For two years I've been trying to figure out what an API is. Today, thanks to you I finally know. And you described endpoints, REST, etc. You EXPLAINED what each of the fundamental concepts were instead of just banging out code for people to try to grasp. Great tutorial!
    I've subbed, and for the first time in my 15 years of watching UA-cam I am clicking that bell icon. Thank you for everything you do.

    Hi Caleb. I've been used APIs for some time, in a debugging/test capacity. I'm moving into a pre-sales role and came here looking for a way to explain API functionality. Your definition is fantastic. Thanks so much for this course! Oh and also the C++ course.

    • @artistpw
      @artistpw Рік тому +3

      Here's how I described them to a judge. Basically, think about a phone app like Rosetta Stone. You're trying to learn French. All of that data isn't going to exist on your phone, so that's where the api comes in. The app on your phone makes a request to an api that fetches data from a big database somewhere.

    I lost a job opportunity because I didn't understand REST API's and now I completely get it. I am able to explain it to someone else. My issue was I didn't know the client server model and I was trying to watch your video; therefore, I was clueless still. I came back after learning this and everything instantly made sense to me.

    Caleb, I've probably watched this video 4 times over the past 2 years and I gotta say THANK YOU.
    I use the first half of the video as a training tool for my team to understand how API works as we support a software platform with API integration. This information is invaluable to get someone from absolute beginner to someone who can actually pop into postman and play around a bit with API.
    Really great work!

    Majored in IT yet never had a really good intuitive understanding of how to create APIs. Not much courses did this though either but...I learned in Java for JSPs. Anyway, granted this was in python and used flask (which I haven't used before) I can clearly understand the basics of creating a Rest API now! Thank you for making this great video as it finally made me connect the dots/fill the gaps in my understanding of creating APIs and creating *REST* APIs.

    You are one of the best Tech Instructors in our world today bro. For some time now I have been trying to get into APIs but I just wasn't cracking it, I couldn't grasp the concept. Most lectures could start well but then get boring and convoluted along the way, and I would give up. But today that dark cloud has been removed, I see it clearly now, you have just opened a whole new path for me, a path of possibilities. May Jah bless you with more time here, so you can live to see your grand grand kids. Thanks🙌
