As a network guy...open up your favorite web-managed application and open the developer console. Inspect the transactions you see and compare it to the applications REST API reference, and you'll likely find a lot of commonality (and maybe some undocumented endpoints!).

Backend made the API and everything that is performed by it. Front end is doing the GUI based off the response and promoting for input.
