REST is an abbreviation for "REpresentational State Transfer." "REST(ful) api" accesses to a uri of a proper web app by using appropriate HTTP method and url. For example, to get data of book by specifying book id(3), you access to 'get/book/3.' 'Get' is a HTTP method and '/book/3' is a url in this case. In Laravel, you can create controller that corresponds to REST api.
