A comprehensive guide to building a purely functional REST API in Scala using the Http4s library.
Blog post: blog.rockthejvm.com/http4s-tutorial/ Http4s website: http4s.org This video is a bit more complex than usual. Behold a comprehensive tutorial (more like a crash course, really) into one of the prominent HTTP libraries for Scala, Http4s. In this video, we'll create a step-by-step REST application describing a movies database (a toy IMDB) and we'll showcase crucial aspects of the Http4s library, including - creating routes - matching paths - matching query parameters - supporting custom parsers and data types - JSON payloads (encoding and decoding) - composing routes - starting a server and more.
