What is WADL?
WADL (Web Application Description Language) is an XML-based machine-readable description of HTTP-based web applications (typically RESTful web services). It describes the resources provided by an application and their relationships. It simplifies the reuse of web services by enabling the automated generation of client code and documentation.
