# What is JSON:API?

JSON:API is a specification for building APIs in json.

"By following shared conventions, you can increase productivity, take advantage of generalized tooling, and focus on what matters: your application."

# Features

# Data normalization

Instead of accessing raw JSON:API responses you will use simple normalized data objects.

See Normalized Data chapter.

# Declarative data fetching

Declare in component what resources you need and don't worry about all the things related to the call.

# Auto updates

Resources are shared and reused so any record changes are propagated to all places where given record is used. You can forget about updating the UI or refetching the queries.

# Fetch policies

Make use of already fetched data using fetch policies. Easily specify how you want your component to interact with the cache.

# And much more...
