Bookshelf API Backend
A RESTful API for managing a digital bookshelf with CRUD operations
Technologies
Responsibilities
- Designing and implementing RESTful API endpoints for book management
- Developing CRUD operations with proper error handling and validation
- Setting up server architecture and data persistence layer
A comprehensive RESTful API backend built with Node.js and Express for managing a digital bookshelf application. This project implements complete CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations allowing users to manage their book collection effectively.
The API includes functionality for adding new books with details such as title, author, year, and reading status. Users can view their entire collection, search and filter books based on various parameters, update book information, and remove books from their collection.
Key technical features include robust input validation, error handling, proper HTTP status codes, and RESTful routing principles. The architecture follows best practices for Node.js applications with modular code organization and separation of concerns.
The project demonstrates proficiency in backend development skills including API design, server-side JavaScript, middleware implementation, and HTTP protocol understanding. The codebase is well-documented with clear API specifications for easy integration with frontend applications.
