📦 Building and organizing APIs

📚 RESTful Naming for Routes

Stick to RESTful naming conventions when creating routes in Rails. This improves consistency and makes it easier to understand and scale your codebase.

Examples:

• resources :registrations ➡️ use registrations.js (plural)
• resource :profile ➡️ use profile.js (singular)
• For snake_case resources like :draft_order, use draft_order.js

📁 Organizing API Files

Place all API connectors in:

app/javascript/src/apis

This follows the modular structure for scalability and maintainability.

1. File Naming

• Use the resource name from the Rails route.
• Use plural if resources is used, singular if resource.
• Keep naming consistent with backend.
