Explore a conference talk that challenges conventional approaches to building HTTP APIs. Delve into the speaker's motivation for creating Pico, a minimalist "pico framework" designed specifically for API development. Learn how Pico streamlines the process of writing clean, testable, and maintainable APIs using simple functions and modules with minimal boilerplate. Discover the framework's opinionated yet flexible design philosophy, which allows developers to focus on core API logic. Understand how Pico-built APIs are self-describing, enabling automatic client code generation. Examine the evolution of Pico over seven years and gain insights into lessons learned about HTTP API and framework development. This talk, presented at EuroPython 2017 in Rimini, Italy, offers valuable perspectives for developers seeking to optimize their approach to API construction.
