HTML Verbs and Return Codes

In web development, HTML verbs (also known as HTTP methods) and return codes (HTTP
status codes) play crucial roles in client-server communication. Understanding these
concepts is essential for building robust and efficient web applications. This document
discusses the different HTML verbs and return codes.

HTML Verbs

GET
The GET method requests a representation of the specified resource. Requests using GET
should only retrieve data.

POST
The POST method is used to submit an entity to the specified resource, often causing a
change in state or side effects on the server.

PUT
The PUT method replaces all current representations of the target resource with the
request payload.

DELETE
The DELETE method deletes the specified resource.

PATCH
The PATCH method is used to apply partial modifications to a resource.

HEAD
The HEAD method asks for a response identical to that of a GET request, but without the
response body.

OPTIONS
The OPTIONS method is used to describe the communication options for the target
resource.

the request.
