✅ Decision Checklist
Before designing an API:
- Asked user about API consumers?
- Chosen API style for THIS context? (REST/GraphQL/tRPC)
- Defined consistent response format?
- Planned versioning strategy?
- Considered authentication needs?
- Planned rate limiting?
- Documentation approach defined?
❌ Anti-Patterns
DON'T:
- Default to REST for everything
- Use verbs in REST endpoints (/getUsers)
- Return inconsistent response formats
- Expose internal errors to clients
- Skip rate limiting
DO:
- Choose API style based on context
- Ask about client requirements
- Document thoroughly
- Use appropriate status codes
