Free public beta until December 4, 2026: every course is open, no card needed. After that, the first chapter of each course stays free and full access is a one-time $39 ($19 for up to 100 founding members chosen for helpful feedback). Your progress is kept. How the beta works

method

The verb in an HTTP request, like GET (read) or POST (create).

The method names the action of an HTTP request: GET and HEAD are safe, GET, PUT and DELETE are idempotent, POST is neither.

Examples

  • The sensor uses POST to add a new reading; a dashboard uses GET to read the list.

  • The dashboard sets the valve with PUT /api/benches/bench1/valve and the body {"open_pct":40}.
