Fun With APIs: Build a Powerful REST API using Laravel, Passport, and Fractal
This talk covers how to rapidly build a REST API in Laravel using the example of an RFID tag based festival and concert credential management system.
The topics include how to properly blueprint API endpoints using the REST paradigm, authenticate users using Oauth2 via Passport (new in 5.3!), standardize hypermedia responses with JSON API spec 1.0 and Fractal, and demonstrating clean code with relatively simple architecture and a rich domain model.
