Great APIs with Symfony and Open Source Software
sfday Italy (formerly known as SymfonyDay) is the main conference in Italy dedicated solely to Symfony and its ecosystem. Hundreds of developers from the whole country already participated to the previous 7 editions.
Nowadays offering a REST API has become a must for most of the businesses. Offering a good documentation, validating properly the requests, having descriptive error messages, supporting multiple versions, retrieving data, persisting data, handling rate limitations and many other things can be not an easy task.
This talk is a walk-through on how to build a rich, RESTful (Level 3 including HATEOAS) API for web applications using Symfony-related components and bundles. The result will be a standard, documented, validated and easy to maintain API, that users will enjoy and developers love to build.
