suggestion: REST Best Practices

[dwmkerr]

📚 Handbook

I have to educate people on this again and again. Things like:

• Naming of routes, spinal case vs camel case
• Plural/Singular routes
• Status Codes
• Common patterns (e.g. query strings for optional searching fields)
• LImit/number of results, paging

Some useful reading:

• https://blog.restcase.com/5-basic-rest-api-design-guidelines/

For ages I've been wanting to write the 'definitive' guide to REST APIs, I'd be very happy to take this one on.
