Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State (H.A.T.E.O.A.S)
HATEOAS (Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State) is a constraint of the Representational State Transfer (REST) architectural style that requires a server to provide information to clients dynamically about available actions and resources through hypermedia links in responses.
In other words, HATEOAS is an approach to designing and implementing web services that allows the client application to interact with the server using hypermedia links, rather than by having prior knowledge of possible server interactions. This approach enables a more flexible and discoverable API, as well as making it easier to evolve the API over time without breaking existing clients.
