Hypermedia

Hypermedia is a software design principle that is often associated with the design of Representational State Transfer (REST)ful web services.

It emphasizes the use of hyperlinks to navigate between resources and discover the available actions that can be performed on those resources. By making the API self-descriptive, hypermedia promotes decoupling between the client and server, and allows for more flexible and scalable systems. Hypermedia is often implemented using media types such as JSON-LD, HAL, or Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State (H.A.T.E.O.A.S).
