positive.code: A hypermedia affordance is a rich hyperlink. That means, it not only contains a URI or a URITemplate, but also information about the usage of the URI, such as supported http methods and expected parameters. The term 'hypermedia affordance' is a neologism made popular by http://amundsen.com/blog/archives/1109[Mike Amundsen], following an earlier reference in http://roy.gbiv.com/talks/200804_REST_ApacheCon.pdf[A little REST and Relaxation] by Roy Fielding.
  A hydra-java `Affordance` can be used to render media-types which support this kind of information: first and foremost hydra, but it is quite easy to add message converters for other media types once the basic information is available.
  
  Version 0.2.0 provides an `AffordanceBuilder` class which is a drop-in replacement for the spring-hateoas `ControllerLinkBuilder`. The `AffordanceBuilder` does not depend on hydra or json-ld. It lives in the standalone jar spring-hateoas-ext and can also be used to render other media types than json-ld. One example is the `XhtmlResourceMessageConverter` which allows you to render your API responses as HTML forms.
  Use the `AffordanceBuilder` to build `Affordance` instances which inherit from the spring-hateoas `Link` but add the following traits to it:
  
  * Full support for all attributes of a http Link header as described by the https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5988[web linking rfc 5988]
  
negative.code: 
  Status: Testing. Since the Hydra Specification is still a draft, expect incompatible changes.
