How to read this: this compares pay in postings that ask for the skill with pay in all postings. It mostly shows which kinds of jobs ask for it — not what the skill alone does to your pay.

How these numbers are made

Counting unit: a posting is one role. Repeat requisitions from the same employer with the same title and the same location (city, state or province, country, and remote or not) count once, using the newest one. Counted over open, de-duplicated postings with a description (11,714), once per posting; the 93 REST API postings stand for 101 requisitions. Every share, median and pairing below uses postings, not requisitions. A posting counts as asking for REST API when its description matches: 'REST API(s)/services/endpoints' in capitals, or 'RESTful' any case; the word 'rest' never counts. A skill is never counted for its own employer's postings. Shares show their N and denominator: 0.8% (93 of 11,714).

Pay compares hourly US-dollar pay (weekly, monthly and yearly pay converted, ranges at their midpoint), only for postings that publish it: 38 REST API postings against 4377 postings overall. Medians, not averages.
