## Description

Since all of WordPress core needs to benefit from the REST API, it makes sense that
the most common of all WordPress plugins, Hello Dolly should also have a RESTful
endpoint.

## Installation

 1. Upload `/restful-hello-dolly/` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Access the endpoint here: /wp-json/restful-hello-dolly/v1/lyric

## FAQ

  Is this totally useless?

No more then a RESTful file editor.

  What about create, update, and delete?

Sorry, this plugin is limited in scope, and we don’t want to railroad the features
for petty things that most users don’t need. Better to release quickly, so that 
we can gain wider adoption.
