It begins with an introduction to these HTTP methods, followed by a detailed walkthrough of updating an idea using a PUT request. The instructor demonstrates how to handle potential errors and verify the update using Postman. Next, the tutorial explains how to implement a DELETE request to remove an idea from an array, again using Postman for testing.
