✨ Features

• REST API: Comprehensive study of HTTP methods, request/response handling, and best practices.
• GraphQL: Efficient data retrieval with GraphQL schemas, resolvers, and queries.
• gRPC: Implementation of Protobuf-based gRPC server-client communication.

---

🌐 Frameworks Covered

• Node.js: JavaScript runtime for building scalable APIs.
• Golang: Lightweight and fast language for robust API services.
• Symfony: PHP framework with structured components and rich tools.
• Spring Boot: Java-based framework tailored for microservices and enterprise APIs.
