Python for REST API

Python is a fantastic language for writing a REST API. It has modules that allow for database queries and others that process the HTTP web requests into the URL and parameter components. Using these modules, the requested resource is retrieved from the database and returns the data as JSON using modules that convert between Python dictionaries and JSON objects.

While a Python-based API can be built using the standard library, using a web framework to build the API will speed up the development time and enable component modules to be added as needed.
