BUILD AGAINST OUR RESTFUL API
Representational state transfer
Unlike SOAP-based Web services, there is no "official" standard for RESTful Web APIs. This is
because REST is an architectural style, while SOAP is a protocol. REST is not a standard, but RESTful
implementations make use of standards, such as HTTP, URI, JSON, and XML.
POST/PUT Customers, Inventory and Style master’s in real-time
GET orders and mark them as exported
Powerful validation rules to prevent import errors
Documentation with sample Request/Response in XML and JSON
SOAP/UI documentation and examples for all API endpoints
GraphQL allows clients to define the structure of the data required, and exactly the same structure
of the data is returned from the server, therefore preventing excessively large amounts of data from
being returned.
GraphQL supports reading, writing (mutating) and subscribing to changes to data (realtime
updates).

Philadelphia – JOOR?
Technology in Business: The businesses themselves are also stronger. The markets are rewarding
companies with revenue. Many investors are not simply investing in “technology” broadly. Frequently,
they’re interested in investing in disruptive products for industries in which they have preexisting
knowledge.
It was from a former boss who told me to “focus more on managing your energy rather than your time.”
As an entrepreneur, you and your VCs are always going to be worried about burn-out. When you work
with people you love, who you get and give energy to, you won't get burned out as easily. Burning out is
a symptom of surrounding yourself with people who zap energy from you or require a ton of
maintenance. It's not worth it!
