The HTTP OPTIONS method is used to request information about the communication options available for the target resource. The response may include an Allow header indicating allowed HTTP methods on the resource, or various Cross Origin Resource Sharing headers. The HTTP OPTIONS method is both safe and idempotent, as it is intended only for use in querying information about ways to interact with a resource.

Great course. I enjoyed how you used GitHub for most of the examples.

I'm glad you enjoyed it! Using GitHub for the API examples was a nice way to tie it into a familiar domain using a freely available API.
