ASP.NET Web API

ASP.NET Web API 是.NET Framework上的一个框架，用来生成 web API。

Web API 能够构建HTTP服务以支撑更广泛的客户端，包括浏览器，手机和平板电脑的框架。它是非常棒的构建服务的框架，遵循REST架构风格，而且它支持的RPC模式。

Note: 在Web API里控制器不是从Controller类继承而是从ApiController类继承，同时Web API上的操作并不返回视图，而是返回数据。

A client makes a HTTP request, it is sent to the server, the Web API routes it to a Controller (a class), and the Controller handles the request.
