international image interoperability framework (iiif)
| why? | what? | how? |
|---|---|---|
| to share images and other media*in context* for easy and inventive (re)use | community-created standards and API specifications | ecosystem of open source software and 100s of adopting institutions |
APIs function as a sort of agreement between two parts of a system or different systems that data will consistently go in one way and out another way, allowing you to switch out different pieces
Like swapping out a front end
Or a back end
Or both!
