+# Technical Handout API description
+
+## Introduction
+
+PGG is a software developed to manage, Tracks and help Teachers to Grade their Peer Groups. In this Technical Handout we will describe how the api is handling the requests from the WebUI.
+
+## Why do we want to implement API's?
+
+The API's are crucial for the septation of concern as well as for the modularity.
+If you use API you are more likely to be able to switch between multiple different Frontends or the other way around multiple
+backends for one Frontend. Their are multiple design patterns thad explain API's and use them like MVC or MVVM.
+We did use them becaus the project is not large enough to uses one of the design patterns effective.
+
+## Who is the user?
+
+The user are Teachers from the schools thad have manny Peer Groups to grade.
+
+## What user pains are we solving and/or what gains are we creating for the user?
+
+the api solves the need of clear label groups linked to user's linked to projects all this is secured by a password. The goal of the project is to make the entire grading process accessible and secure through the API.
+
+## What concrete outcomes do we want to achieve with these APIs?
+
+the apis make a modular and save way to aces the data in the database for different frontends.
+
+## How do we plan to execute the API program to achieve that?
+
+we are executing the a staticky linked binary of the Program.
+
+## What is the architectural style and why have you chosen it (REST, SOAP, GraphQL, …)?"
+
+The program provides a REST API thad get used across the world and is Battle tested. Thad is also the way there is a huge amount of documentation.
+
+## Summary or Conclusion
+
+over all is the application is a staticky linked rust project with a REST API. The goal of the api is to provide a esy way for all teacher to get all informations over the groups with there feedback to the group work and the grades.
