***** UPDATED and REVISED AUGUST 2020 *****

Based on feedback from students, this course has been revised and updated with some extra features so that you may quickly and effectively learn and use the REST API.

The WP REST API enables us to access data or post data via AJAX without refershing the page.

In this course, we will dive into the WP REST API endpoints, how to modify them, create our own CUTSOM WP REST API endpoints and use them in our pages and forms.

Packed with full code examples, you will be able to use the template pages straight away in your own site, as you will learn how to customise them for your site

In the first section we, will build the final site so that you can have your own working copy.

We then works STEP BY STEP through each part of the site so that you can UNDERSTAND how the REST API and AJAX work together.
