API-Routes

Goal: Choose a couple of API Routes to implement.

To make a REST API request you may combine a URL with an HTTP method GET, POST, PUT, or DELETE. Logged in users may only POST, PUT, DELETE owned Lists and Tasks, which are dynamically rendered AJAX requests. Any verification will be validated with session authentication.
