Interfacing with eZ: APIs and GUIs

=20

You can interface with eZ Platform using both APIs and a GUI.

eZ Platform offers two APIs:

the REST API allows y= ou to interact with an eZ Platform installation using the HTTP protocol, fo= llowing a REST interaction model,
the Public (PHP) API exposes a Repository which allows you to create, read, update, manag= e and delete all objects available in eZ Platform, first and foremost conte= nt, but also related objects like sections, locations, content types, conte= nt types groups, languages and so on.

The graphical interface available through the backend interface allows editors and content= managers to easily create and manipulate content without developer knowled= ge. The GUI also covers a number of fundamental administrative operations a= vailable in an Admin Panel.

You can find a description and guide for using the GUI for non-developer= s in a separate documentation cente= r.
