Introduction

In the previous chapter, we implemented the user avatar and recipe cover image upload functions. We worked on the image compression function to improve the performance of image loading speed. Once an image has been uploaded, users can retrieve the URL of the image through an API.

In this chapter, we will work on paginating recipe data. We will explain why we need to perform pagination. This is an important step in optimizing our API. We will also discuss some more important functions, including searching and ordering, which I am sure you have come across in other online applications.
