My wife is a product manager and she kept asking me questions about APIs at her new job. I’m a former developer and now a high school teacher, and I love simplifying complex tech concepts. So we created API101.org, a free course to help product managers and non-technical folks understand APIs, webhooks, authentication, and more. Most of the course is reading and examples, but there are a few mini Postman-style widgets (her idea) scattered in the lessons so you can try real API calls right in your browser. It’s about 2–3 hours long, fairly comprehensive (maybe a bit much, but everything felt…
