Chapter 7: Retrieving Books from our API

It is now time to finally put everything we've just learned in the past couple of chapters to practical use.

We will be using our 8 step recipe in this chapter. We will first use the design doc to plan out the first endpoint and retrieve all the books in our application. After that, we will proceed to creating the endpoint for retrieving a single book by its id.

The rest of the chapters will follow a similar format until we finish implementing of all our RESTful API endpoints.

Let's get started with our first API endpoint!
