NotesHTML is the lowest common denominator in a world where the number of devices are steadily growing. In such a world, our API should be hypermedia driven and we should consider choosing HTML as the media type for our APIs. If we choose this, we can enhance the API with CSS and JavaScript, making the API human-friendly as well. Further, we can use Adaptive Web Design to make the best possible experience for all types of browsers and devices. This kind of solution has some risks and technical issues related to it though. And it is not a silver bullet.Unfurl
