HTTP 204 No Content vs 205 Reset Content
Both HTTP 204 (No Content) and 205 (Reset Content) belong to the 2xx Success category. 204 indicates that the server successfully processed the request but is not returning any content. Common for DELETE operations and form submissions that don't need a response body. Meanwhile, 205 means that the server fulfilled the request and the client should reset the document view (e.g., clear a form).
