Do you agree that the REST protocol should save information about the current state of the client between requests?

The REST (Representational State Transfer) protocol is considered stateless by its architecture, meaning it does not store client state between requests. Each request from the client to the server must contain all the information needed to understand and process the request.

This means the server does not keep information about previous client requests, which simplifies scaling and increases fault tolerance.

If state needs to be preserved, it is usually done on the client side (e.g., using cookies, localStorage) or through tokens passed in each request.

Thus, REST does not agree to store client state between requests — this is one of its key features.
