# URL Suffix API When designing a website, consider leveraging URL suffixes to indicate the format of the resource being accessed, similar to how file extensions are used in operating systems. For example, a webpage located at `/blog/post/id` that renders human-readable content could have its machine-readable data served by appending a format-specific suffix to the same URL, such as `/blog/post/id.json`. #### Benefits: 1. **Intuitive API from Website Usage** Users can easily derive API endpoints from existing website URLs by appending the desired format suffix. 2. **Interchangeable Formats** The same approach allows for multiple formats (e.g., `.json`, `.msgpack`, `.protobuf`) to be supported seamlessly, improving flexibility and usability. This method simplifies the architecture, enhances consistency, and provides an elegant mechanism to serve both human-readable and machine-readable content from the same base URL.
