Description: HTTP methods are a set of commands used in the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) to specify the desired action to be performed on a resource on the web. Each method has a specific purpose and defines how to interact with resources, which can be documents, images, web services, among others. The most common methods include GET, used to request data; POST, used to send data to the server; PUT, which updates existing resources; and DELETE, which removes resources. These methods are fundamental for communication between clients and servers in web applications and are essential for implementing RESTful architectures, where they are used to manipulate resources through a uniform interface. Proper use of HTTP methods allows developers to create efficient and secure web applications, facilitating interaction between different systems and services over the internet.
