Have you ever wondered how REST APIs work? Have you tried to understand all of the components that are required to create REST APIs? Are you a developer from a Java/PHP/Perl/Python background who is now interested in Node.js? Did you want to know how relational databases work? Or how NoSQL works?

has an entire section on how to implement the REST API in an example application, including authentication for users.
