This is a toy project I'm working on at the moment.
My app contains questions with multiple choice answers.
The question url is in the following format, with GET
& POST
mapping to different actions on the questions controller.
GET: url.com/questions/:category/:difficulty => 'ask'
POST: url.com/questions/:category/:difficulty => 'answer'
I'm wondering if it's worth redesigning this into a RESTful style. I know I'd need to introduce answers as a resource, but I'm struggling to think of a url that would look natural for answering that question.
Would a redesign be worthwhile? How would you go about structuring the urls?
