There was once a time where web applications were built with tightly coupled backends and frontends, often deployed as single packages. These applications were not very flexible and often became difficult to maintain. What happens if you have a web application and need to support a new platform like mobile or IoT? What happens if you need to scale? Modern applications demand to be modular and flexible and this is made possible through APIs that can be consumed from any frontend. In this presentation we're going to see how to build a RESTful API with Node.js and Hapi.js that can be consumed with any frontend client using simple HTTP requests. Bring your computer and follow along in this JavaScript heavy evening.
