API Style Comparison

When clients or teammates ask “Should we use REST, GraphQL, or gRPC?”, you need to give a clear recommendation. Different styles serve different needs, and your advice shapes the future maintainability of the project.

Starting points

• REST basics
• GraphQL tutorial
• gRPC overview
• REST vs GraphQL vs gRPC comparison

Key Points

• The recommendation matches the data access patterns (over/under-fetching).
• Performance, tooling, and ecosystem support have been considered.
• The pros and cons are explained clearly in business terms, not just technical jargon.
