The Xyxyx API is a REST API for building text-based tokenization applications, which can be integrated into any existing system. The API is designed on top of the [Xyxyx Text-Based Tokenization Architecture (XTBTA)](https://docs.xyxyx.pro/introduction/xyxyx-text-based-tokenization-architecture-xtbta).

The Xyxyx API is a Representational State Transfer (REST) API consisting of HTTP endpoints. The endpoints use blockchain-based methods for authentication and are designed in a common pattern, largely using JSON requests and responses.

Refer to the [Getting Started](https://developer.xyxyx.pro/getting-started) section to begin using the Xyxyx API.
