The WordPress REST API provides API endpoints for WordPress data types that allow developers to interact with sites remotely by sending and receiving [JSON](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON) (JavaScript Object Notation) objects. JSON is an open standard data format that is lightweight and human-readable, and looks like Objects do in JavaScript; hence the name. When you send content to or make a request to the API, the response will be returned in JSON. This enables developers to create, read and update WordPress content from client-side JavaScript or from external applications, even those written in languages beyond PHP.
