Introduction

When building mobile applications, understanding how data is fetched and exchanged over networks is essential. This lesson delves into fundamental network concepts, providing you with a solid foundation for app development. These are the key topics you’ll cover:

  • Static vs. Dynamic Data: Learn the difference between static data bundled with an app and dynamic data fetched from servers.
  • Network Request Process: Understand the process of initiating a network request, receiving server responses, and processing data.
  • REST APIs and Endpoints: Dive into the principles of REST APIs, including the uniform interface, statelessness, and client-server architecture. Explore how endpoints facilitate interactions between clients and servers.
  • JSON Data Structure: Explore the JSON format, its key/value pair structure, and its significance in transmitting data between server and client applications.

By the end of this lesson, you’ll have a clear understanding of how network interactions drive dynamic data-driven mobile applications.
