Ah, and therein lies the classic problem. Nobody is doing REST "right," but I'm yet to see anyone point to a de-facto example.
Fielding's dissertation isn't a spec, which pretty much means everyone can come up with their own little slice of how it should be done and then say they're doing it right.
The true rule of REST: whoever is blogging/commenting about it at the time is doing REST right, all others are confused and incorrect.

- meddlepal 10y agoThere is a lot ceremony with "REST". Considering REST is architectural pattern and not even an HTTP-specific one I find it very suspect whenever someone says REST API's must use particular HTTP methods or structure URL's in a specific way. Conventionally that is true and it certainly reduces friction in your API by adhering to common conventions.
