This week I have chosen to continue to write about API’s and specifically the differences in all the API’s out there as REST shouldn’t be the only type of protocol used and learning more about the different kinds of API’s used will be a great boost in the future. I have chosen a blogpost that I think goes over these different kinds of API’s well enough for someone to start learning about the different kinds of API’s

In summary, Castellani goes over the main types of API,s which are Open API’s, Partner API’s, Internal API’s, and Composite API’s. An Open API is also called a public API in which it is publicly available to developers and user without much restrictions. The focus of this API is on the outside external users for third party services/data. A partner API is an API that is only given access to specific business partners and are used for outward communication outside the company. An internal API is also called a private API has many restrictions and is only worked on by the internal development teams. A composite API is a combination of multiple API’s and services. Castellani also goes over different protocols such as SOAP which stands for simple access object protocol which came before REST. It was the first to bring standardization in how to manage service using network services but was seen as too strict. There is also RPC protocol which stands for remote procedural call protocol which is the oldest out the three given. This protocol is hard to maintain and update and was used for client code execution.

This blogpost has given new bits of information on the different kinds of API’s out there. The way we have changed from the different rules and protocols to what we mainly use today. The previous versions were restrictive in their own ways and eventually were let go for what we have today. I wonder if eventually we will let go of REST and create a new set of rules to follow. There might be some situations where a certain protocol would be preferred over the over but people just mainly go for REST which is what we are working with in our API’s. There is also the parts on the different types of API’s and the one I have worked on is perhaps and open API and would like to see on how something like a composite API would look like to work with and handle.

I wanted to do my next blog post on backends and frontends because we learned about them through the past few activities and while I have a general idea of how they operate, I want to clear up some confusion and get a better understanding of them. I was having some technical issues with my Visual Studio Code and Docker while working on those activities and spent some time getting them working, so I feel that I missed out on some parts of the work.

Based on the activities and my own understanding before doing more research, I saw the backend as the background code that makes the program work, while the frontend is what the user interacts with and uses the backend. The backend works with the API, endpoints, and paths that use the HTTP methods. The frontend works with the application and design, as well as being the interface for the user. They cooperate to run programs because they worked together in the activities to run the LibreFoodPantry data.

When looking more into the frontend and backend from an article from GeeksForGeeks called “Frontend vs Backend”, it was saying similar things about the two that were covered in the activities with the frontend and backend working as client and server sides of a program respectively. The frontend is the client side that the user directly interacts with, while the backend is the server side that runs the program and manages the data. The programming languages that the frontend uses are HTPP, CSS, JavaScript, and the ones that the backend uses are PHP, C++, Java, Python, JavaScript, Node.js, C#, Ruby, and REST.

As mentioned earlier, the frontend and backend sides act as two sides of a program that work together, with the frontend being what the users interact with, while the backend is not able to be seen by users but runs the code and even though it is not directly interacted with by the user, it runs what is interacted.

The main frameworks that the frontend uses are AngularJS, React.js, jQuery, SASS, and Flutter. The main frameworks that the backend uses are Express, Django, Rails, Laravel, and Spring.

I learned more about the fronted and backend aspects of web development through this article and reviewed what I knew from the activities that I may not have understood because I had to dedicate time to fixing the program so I could actually test it. I have a good understanding of how to work with the backend and frontend of a program, and can continue working on activities and homework.

After learning the backend concept, I have learned about the frontend concept for these weeks. Especially, I have a chance to work with the .vue files to build the frontend in my homework 6. Although I was given some lectures about the .vue file in class, I am not really sure about what I am supposed to do in these files. Moreover, there were a lot of new syntax that I had never seen before. Thus, I did some searches with a hope that I could find a good resource to help me learn about .vue file.

Vue Files is one of the resources that I find useful. This website will introduce to readers an overview of a Vue project, like what folders and files should be included in a Vue project. In particular, the site will focus on describing in detail what a .vue file is and what blocks should be included in a .vue file and how to write each block. From the web, I learned that a .vue file is a custom file format that uses HTML to describe a Vue component. Each component consists of three types of blocks, which are <template>, <script>, and <style>. Each block will contain different types of code. Specifically, <template> contains HTML code; <script> contains JavaScript code, and <style> contains the CSS style of the component.

Moreover, according to the webpage, I have learned a lot of new syntax which is used to build a template of a component. First of all, text interpolation whose syntax is {{myVariable}} is used only to specify any valid JavaScript expressions in the template; and it cannot be used to modify any HTML code. Moreover, the website also introduces to readers about directives which are Vue- specific syntax elements used in the template. For example, v-model is used to take inputs and to update the variable values. v-if/ v-else/ v-else-if is a conditional statement that works in the same way as the equivalent in JavaScript. v-for is used as a loop statement to generate lists of elements in the template. v-on is used to define an action to take if an event occurs, such as click, mouseover, focus, etc.

Furthermore, in the components section, the website also introduce some elements could be written in the vue component’s script block, such as name, data(), methods, props, mounted(), computed, watch, etc. The website also provide syntax and the purpose of each element to help readers understand and be able to write a complete vue component’s script.

In short, I believe this site is well worth my reading as it contains all the information that I need to do my homework-6. Furthermore, I find it useful because besides providing information about the .vue file, it also has specific examples for each syntax, so readers can practice with the new syntax directly on the website.

Hello, blog (mood-status: relax and focus), writing this blog after coming home from a work trip and finishing it the last week of classes, studying on exams, and submitting assignments. But anyway, on writing about this week-13. I am writing this as my final blog for the year 2021. I decided to go on the Syllabus once again to look at the course topics. Then I choose the subject of the Framework.

A framework is a platform that provides a foundation for developing software applications. It uses shared resources (libraries, image files, and reference documents) puts them together in one package. The resources can modify that package to suit the project’s specific needs. With a framework, the developer can add or replace features to give new functionality to the application. A working program that Framework can selectively modify by adding code.

What are the different types of frameworks?

The programming languages that many frameworks available from each use to solve different problems that come up in software development for Many industries can use it.

Back-End Web Frameworks

Back-end web frameworks are the multiple used programming frameworks. Web frameworks help developers in making web applications and active websites. These frameworks completely changed how web development is done, speeding up the entire software development process by automating everyday tasks for web developers, like providing database access, session management, and page templates. Instead of building websites using HTML, JavaScript, and CSS, back-end frameworks use programming languages to interact with a database to generate content. The work is hosted on a server, consequently the back-end portion.

Front-End Frameworks

Back-end frameworks are loaded on a server and executed in a user’s browser. It allows web developers to design what the users see on the website, manage requests, define file structures, and style its components. As Framework, It gives web developers a base to develop while controlling the final output. 

Why should you use a framework?

Frameworks help reduce time wasted in developing software. It provides a general working system that the user set for a specific application by extending the code. All the lower-level details have been added already. Frameworks allow the developer to save more time to write code specific to the project, not dealing with the Framework’s workaday, redundant functions. Also, It made the code clean and easily adjustable by following the coding convention of the Framework. Finally, frameworks help develop the project quickly, reducing programming time and costs.
