1
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,000
In this course section,

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,000
we are now going to leave

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:09,000
our standard Next.jspage.

4
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:12,000
And especially the standard pages

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:14,000
we've worked with thus far.

6
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,000
Instead, in this course section, we're going to take a look

7
00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:22,000
at another Next.js feature, which is called API routes.

8
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,000
And therefore in this section, we're going to

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,000
learn what exactly API routes are and why they exist.

10
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,000
And we're going to explore how we can add API routes

11
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,000
and how we can work with those API routes when we need them.

12
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:40,000
And last but not least, we're going to take a closer look

13
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:45,000
at dealing with requests and responses inside of API routes.

14
00:00:45,000 --> 00:00:48,000
And therefore, let's not waste any time and dive right in.
