Hypermedia is a form of media (things like text, images, video) that has things you can click on / interact with to navigate to other pages.
It is precisely defined as a nonlinear medium of information that includes graphics, audio, video, plain text and hyperlinks.[1].
JSON has no built-in support for hyperlinks, which are a fundamental building block on the Web.
— W3C[2]
Using hypermedia responses, links in the response can indicate a set of next actions, as well as point to documentation or related endpoints. This allows for discoverable APIs[3].
