🌐 What is an API? 🐝 An API (Application Programming Interface) allows different software applications to communicate with each other. Think of it like a worker bee 🐝 collecting nectar 🌸 (data) and bringing it back to the hive (client)! In this simple example, an API request is like a bee asking for more nectar (data), then fetching it from the server (flower 🌸) and returning it to make honey (your app 🍯). APIs make the web world function smoothly by facilitating data exchange. 🖥️💡 If you're into web development, mastering APIs is essential for creating dynamic and interactive applications! 💻 🔗 #WebDevelopment #API #Programming #TechKnowledge #DataTransfer #WebAPI #SoftwareEngineering #APITutorial #TechExplained #CodingLife

What is a RESTful API? → RESTful API stands for Representational State Transfer Application Programming Interface. → It's a set of rules that allows different software applications to communicate with each other. How Do RESTful APIs Work? → They use standard HTTP methods like GET, POST, PUT, DELETE to perform operations. → GET retrieves data, POST sends new data, PUT updates existing data, and DELETE removes data. Benefits of RESTful APIs → Interoperability: Different systems can communicate and work together. → Scalability: Easily handle increasing loads and grow with your application. → Flexibility: Can be used with different programming languages and platforms. Facilitating Communication → Front-end requests data from the back-end using APIs. → Back-end processes the request and sends the response back to the front-end. → This seamless exchange ensures your application runs smoothly and efficiently.

𝐀𝐬𝐲𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐬𝐲𝐧𝐜 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐂# When building apps in C#, we often deal with tasks that take time to complete, like API calls or database queries. To avoid freezing the app while waiting, we use asynchronous programming with async and await. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐀𝐬𝐲𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠? Asynchronous programming allows your program to perform other tasks without waiting for long-running operations to finish. This keeps your app responsive and efficient. 𝐄𝐱𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞: Imagine your app fetches the weather forecast and air quality from two different APIs. While waiting for the data, you don’t want your app to freeze. Here's an improved example of how to handle this with async and await: 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠? 𝐒𝐢𝐦𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐞𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐓𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐬: Both tasks, ObterPrevisaoDoTempoAsync and ObterQualidadeDoArAsync, are started at the same time. No waiting between them. 𝐓𝐚𝐬𝐤.𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐀𝐥𝐥: This ensures both tasks finish before the app continues. It’s like waiting for two friends to finish their ice cream before heading home together. 𝐍𝐨 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐳𝐢𝐧𝐠: The app remains responsive, and the user can see a loading spinner, making the app feel smoother. 𝐖𝐡𝐲 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐬𝐲𝐧𝐜 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭? 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐔𝐗: The app doesn’t freeze while waiting for the data. 𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠: Multiple operations (like calling APIs) can happen at the same time. 𝐄𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲: The app can handle more tasks without blocking its main thread.

Why is containerizing Node-RED important? The Node-RED Project has a huge community of third-party nodes available for installation. Also, note that the community doesn’t generally recommend using an odd-numbered Node version. This advice is tricky for new users, since they might end up fixing Node compatibility issues. Running your Node-RED app in a Docker container lets users get started quickly with sensible defaults and customization via environmental variables. Users no longer need to worry about compatibility issues. Next, Docker enables users to build, share, and run containerized Node-RED applications — made accessible for developers of all skill levels.

The Day I Learned to Handle Exceptions Like a Pro A few years back, we ran into a frustrating bug while pair programming with a colleague. The app kept crashing, and our logs were useless. After some time, we realized the issue was simple: we were catching generic exceptions without adding useful messages or logs. While we fixed it, I learned some key exception-handling best practices: • Exceptions should only be used for unexpected issues, not things you can anticipate and handle with logic. • Catching specific exceptions like IOException or NullPointerException, instead of generic exceptions provides more clarity on what is going wrong. • Add detailed descriptions about what the error was and why it happened Instead of using vague error messages. • Log every exception with context, including stack traces and key variables. • Move the exception handling to places where you have the information to fix the issue or take the right action. • For errors like network timeouts, add retry logic to handle temporary issues without crashing. If retries fail, implement fallback options to keep the system running. • Instead of letting the app crash, design graceful failure paths—showing user-friendly messages when something goes wrong while keeping the system as functional as possible. • Every exception should be handled or logged. Swallowing exceptions without logging or throwing them further made bugs disappear without a trace. • Create custom exceptions for specific cases. Instead of a generic error. Having a UserNotFoundException made it clear what went wrong. How do you handle exceptions in your projects? Share your best practices! #ExceptionHandling #CodingBestPractices #SoftwareEngineering

Great insights on handling exceptions! Here are some of my best practices which I followed in my spring boot project : Consistent Exception Handling: I handle exceptions consistently across the application to ensure that anyone calling the APIs—whether it's the frontend or other backend services—receives a uniform error response. To achieve this, I use @RestControllerAdvice and @ExceptionHandler to create a global exception handling class that manages all controller exceptions. Custom Exceptions: I create custom exceptions by extending RuntimeException, which allows me to throw more meaningful exceptions to the user. Custom API Error Object: I design a custom API error object that includes the error message, status code, reasons for the exception, and the timestamp of the error.

🎉 Day 6 of #100DaysOfCode 🎉 Mastering asynchronous programming with async/await. "Imagine you're building a web app that fetches user data from an API. You want to display the user's name and email after retrieving the data. However, fetching data from the API takes some time, and you don't want to block the rest of your app while waiting for the data to arrive." 💡 let's see how you can achieve this using async/await ⏳ 🔎 The displayUserData function is declared as async, which allows the use of the await keyword inside it. 🔎 await getUserData() pauses the execution of displayUserData until the Promise returned by getUserData is resolved. 🔎 Once the Promise resolves, the result (user data) is stored in the user variable, and the code continues. #JavaScript #coding #webdevelopment #programming #100DaysOfCode #developer #frontend #learning
