1. Network Protocols

   • TCP - Reliable data transmission
   • UDP - Faster, unreliable
   • HTTP - Recieves and requests web content
   • HTTPS - Secure HTTP
   • FTP - Transfer Files
   • DNS - Resolves domain to IP
   • IP Address - Device Identifier
   • VPN - Encrypts network activities

2. Data Security

   • Cryptography
     • Symmetric Encryption
     • Asymmetric Encryption
   • Authentication
     • 2FA
     • Passwords
   • Hashing
   • CIA Triad
     • Confidentiality
     • Integrity
     • Availability
   • Error Message: "I don't know what that means?"/"Enter in a search term"

3. Data Exchange Components

   • Client - Software sending the request (Web Browser)
   • Server - Responds to client requests (SWAPAI Server)
   • Request - Message sent to fetch data
   • Resource - Actual data item requested ("Luke Skywalker")
   • Endpoint - Specific URL to access resource
   • REST - Set of API design rules using HTTP

4. API

   • Star Wars
   • Planets
   • Characters
   • RESTful (Uses GET)
   • Pull data
   • Use Endpoints

5. Data

   • JSON transferred
   • Transformed to HTML
   • Characters, Films, Planets
   • Validated, Transformed, Encrypted, Transferred
   • XML as an alaternative
   • Algorithm
   • Interface
     • HTML Table Layout
     • Rows, Columns, Cells
     • User-friendly formatting
     • Styled with CSS
     • Grid View, as well as <td> <th>
     • Properties Styled on Interface 'A New Hope'

6. UI/UX

   • Visual Layout
   • Consistency
   • Interactive & Engagement
   • Feedback (Error messages)
   • Easy to access
   • CSS/HTML

7. Sample Data

   • Characters (Name, Gender, BY)
   • Films (Titles, Release Date, Years)
   • Planets (Name, Population, Climate)
   • Starships (Name, Model)

8. Resources

   • VS Code
   • SWAPI
   • Flask
   • JSON

9. JSON

   • Key Value Pairs
   • Arrays and Objects
   • Human Readable
   • Returned directly by SWAPI
   • Character Lists
   • Smaller File Size then XML
   • Ideal for Webapps

10. XML

    • Tag Based like HTML
    • Verbose
    • Not usually used with JSON
    • Slower with larger data size
    • More code, less output

11. REST

    • Stateless
    • Uses HTTP Methods (Get, Recieve, Fetch, Select)
    • Resource based /planets, /characters
    • Unique endpoints (URL)
    • Scaleable & Cahcable
    • SWAPI is RESTful

12. Coded Examples

13. Data Structures

    • Key value pairs
    • Arrays films/characters [ ]
    • uid (Unique IDs)
    • Properties object
    • Lists and URL References (gender)
    • 'name': 'Luke Sykywalker'

14. Data Specifications

    • String, Integer, Boolean
    • Data Lengths such as Name < 50
    • mass must be numeric
    • Null or unknown values
    • Valid UID's only
