For years, when we needed to expose Web API for our web app, we went for REST API. In fact, most of us do that also today.

However - the landscape has changed, and today we have additional alternatives for our Web API implementation, namely:

REST API
GraphQL
gRPC
But how can we choose between them?

In this session, we'll discuss just that. We'll:

Have a quick overview of each of these APIs
Discuss the pros and cons of each API
Learn about the API Flowchart, guiding us for the right API to use
At the end of this session, you'll be well equipped to choose the best API for your needs.
