REST
Stateless web design
In computing, REST stands for Representational State Transfer, an architectural style for designing networked applications.
RESTful APIs use standard HTTP methods to enable communication between systems: The app uses a REST API to fetch user data.
The term is ubiquitous in web development. (Lowercase rest means repose or remainder.)
