Easy REST API Publishing with RAD Server
Looking at the different options available for Delphi, the most feature-rich and powerful architecture for building mobile backends is RAD Server. Unlike other types of Delphi server applications, RAD Server is pre-built and includes core features out of the box.
In this chapter, we’ll introduce the key elements of RAD Server, without going too deep into all of the features, as the features themselves would take an entire book. This is what we are going to cover:
- RAD Server setup
- Building RAD Server resources
- The
ToDo
list in RAD Server - Creating a client app for RAD Server
The goal of this chapter is to introduce you to RAD Server and explain its core features and how you can write your own web service endpoints and call them in a client app. Of course, we’ll do this by building practical demos as we usually do in this book.
