📄️ REST

REST is an architectural style for designing networked applications that emphasizes simplicity, scalability, and statelessness. It leverages standard HTTP methods and status codes to create predictable, cacheable APIs that are easy to understand and integrate with.

📄️ GraphQL

GraphQL is a query language and runtime for APIs that enables clients to request exactly the data they need, nothing more, nothing less. It provides a complete and understandable description of the data in your API, gives clients the power to ask for exactly what they need, and makes it easier to evolve APIs over time.

📄️ gRPC

gRPC is a high-performance, open-source universal RPC framework developed by Google. It uses Protocol Buffers (protobuf) as its interface definition language and enables efficient communication between services with features like bidirectional streaming, flow control, authentication, and more.
