JsonRPC vs. REST

Question

I'm developing a purely API product targeted at Developers, which protocol should implement the interface with?

manquer · Accepted Answer

If you are building a product for developers you should build what your customers prefer or comfortable with.If your build SDKs for client side consumption it doesn't matter your protocol. I don't care how aws s3 really talks to it's sdk for example.
