Learn the best framework for rapidly building microservices and RESTful APIs in your web appsAbout This VideoLearn everything you need to build practical, fully functional RESTful APIs and microservices from scratch, and communicate with the real world using LumenEasily write stunningly fast services to support your applications using one of the fastest micro-frameworks available Use powerful Laravel features such as Eloquent, caching, queues, validation, routing, middleware, and service containers with ease using LumenIn DetailDo you want to create blazingly fast RESTful APIs that are easy to integrate with various applications? Lumen, one the best micro-frameworks available for creating APIs is here for your rescue! In this course you will learn to build fully functional RESTful API from scratch which helps you create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) data. You will also learn Lumen advanced concepts such as authentication, authorization and securing APIs with encryption and Auth token. Along the way you will learn to test your code and integrate your API into an application thereby extending the capabilities of the micro-framework. By the end of this course, you will be able to efficiently develop and implement services using RESTful APIs. You will be able to create applications that can communicate with the world around them and can be used as a RESTful backend.
