Flutter

When should developers avoid using REST for API design?

The question is about Flutter .

Answer:
REST is not suitable for real-time bidirectional communication-WebSockets or Server-Sent Events are better for live feeds, chat, and collaborative features. GraphQL is preferred when clients require flexible, precise data fetching across complex related entities to prevent over-fetching. gRPC is more appropriate for high-throughput internal service-to-service communication where binary protocol efficiency and strict contracts are necessary.
