# API Design Knowledge Base
Quick reference for API design patterns, REST best practices, and PHP implementation guidelines.
## Core Principles
### REST Constraints
| Constraint | Description | Implication |
|-----------|-------------|-------------|
| Client-Server | Separation of concerns | Independent evolution |
| Stateless | No server-side session state | Each request contains all info |
| Cacheable | Responses declare cacheability | Reduces server load |
| Uniform Interface | Standard resource operations | Predictable API surface |
