Question

API with Python for beginners

Answer 1

Unless what you mean is how to deal with an example API. Then perhaps my code sample could be helpful for you 😉

Answer 2

Are you looking to build an API? If so, then what will be the purpose of the API?

I've built a couple REST API's using Flask. I found the tutorial below helpful:

I find REST API's useful when there's a need to build a web interface and a mobile interface. You write all the app logic in the Python API and call it from the app/mobile app rather than coding the app logic twice in the mobile and web apps.
