5: Use Hypermedia For Evolvability

It is impossible to talk about API design without mentioning Hypermedia, a subject that came up in several presentations during the Nordic APIs World Tour 2015. Pedro Felix of Lisbon Polytechnic Institute, offers a deep dive into HTTP. He summarizes his presentation about API design this way:

“If you have a problem, keep calm and look for an HTTP RFC”

Pedro considers hypermedia as the key factor for evolvability, allowing API providers to react to new business requirements quickly without breaking client applications. Related to Mitra’s theory on the distribution of complexity, using hypermedia means more initial complexity for client app developers, but an overall reduced complexity considering the ease of future changes.
