> REST is a model for CRUD
CRUD covers all possible interactions with data, and, in that sense, this description is correct.
“CRUD application” is sometimes used to refer to an application which presents only the most simple operations data operations to users, and saying REST is for CRUD applications in that sense would be the opposite of the truth. In fact, its the opposite, its a mechanism which facilitates creating applications of arbitrary complexity from components exposing simple, self-describing interfaces.
