Cafe API

This repository contains the source code for a RESTful API that manages information about cafes. Developers can use this API to perform various operations such as retrieving a list of all cafes, getting a random cafe, searching for cafes based on location, adding a new cafe, updating the coffee price of a cafe, and deleting a cafe by its ID. The API follows RESTful routing principles for a well-organized and predictable structure.

Technologies Used

• Flask: A lightweight web framework for building the API.
• SQL Alchemy: A SQL toolkit and Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) library for working with databases.
• Postman: A popular API testing tool for testing and exploring the functionality of the API.
