6.1 Conclusion
So in this course, we introduced ourselves to the WP REST API. At first, we look at basic concepts like HTTP, its methods, Routes, Endpoints, and JSON. Then we set up the working environment by configuring a demo WordPress install and populating it with some demo data. And install the postman Klein and familiarize ourselves with its interface. Then to begin working with the WP REST API and learn to perform several actions like navigating the API and retrieving, creating, updating and deleting data. And finally, in the last section of this course, we created a sample project that allows us to retrieve and create posts using the WP REST API and jQuery. I hope that you will now be confident enough to start exploring the API by yourself and use it in your projects. My name is Bilal Shahid. And from all of us here at Tuts+, thanks for watching.
