Concepts - Getting Started with WERK24's API

WERK24's API is asynchronous is nature. This allows you do keep your user entertained (e.g., by showing the Page Thumbnails) while they wait for the Measures to be extracted. To do this efficiently, we define three concepts: (i) the Drawing Bytes - basically the content of your drawing file, (ii) the Asks - which tell the API what you want to learn about the file, and (iii) the Hooks, that are called when the individual response is available.
