Real-World Project Examples

Example 1: E-commerce Search Functionality

{
    "results": [
        {
            "id": "123",
            "name": "Wireless Headphones",
            "price": 99.99,
            "category": "Electronics",
            "rating": 4.5
        },
        {
            "id": "124",
            "name": "Bluetooth Speaker",
            "price": 49.99,
            "category": "Electronics",
            "rating": 4.0
        }
    ],
    "totalResults": 2,
    "page": 1,
    "pageSize": 10
}

id, name, price, category, and rating. Developers can use this data to display search results dynamically on the frontend.

Example 2: Personalized Recommendations

{
    "recommendations": [
        {
            "id": "456",
            "title": "Action Movie",
            "genre": "Action",
            "rating": 4.8
        },
        {
            "id": "457",
            "title": "Comedy Show",
            "genre": "Comedy",
            "rating": 4.5
        }
    ]
}
