Since wordpress version 4.9.? wordpress includes the functionality provided by this plugin in the core of wordpress.
Checkout https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/using-the-rest-api/global-parameters/#_fields for functionality included in the wordpress core, 
they made it even better by filtering the amount of data pulled from the database.
This plugin will no longer be maintained since it has been superseded by the core functionality.
The <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-api/" rel="ugc">wp-rest-api-v2</a> returns a lot of properties. 
It could be very useful (or mobile-data-friendly) to only return the properties needed by the application.
If you only want titles and links of some articles it doesn’t make sense to return the content or the excerpt.
This isn’t limited to posts, it also works on custom posttypes, categories, pages, terms, taxonomies and comments.
Instead of returning:
<pre><code>{
 "id": 2138,
 "date": "2015-10-25T15:31:03",
 "guid": {
 "rendered": "http://worldofict.nl/?p=2138"
 },
 "modified": "2015-10-25T15:31:03",
 "modified_gmt": "2015-10-25T14:31:03",
 "slug": "rechtenvrije-fotos",
 "type": "post",
 "link": "http://worldofict.nl/tip/2138-rechtenvrije-fotos/",
 "title": {
 "rendered": "Rechtenvrije foto’s"
 },
 "content": {
 "rendered": ".. A lot of content .. "
 },
 "excerpt": {
 "rendered": " .. A lot of content ..."
 },
 "author": 2,
 "featured_image": 2139,
 "comment_status": "open",
 "ping_status": "open",
 "sticky": false,
 "format": "standard",
 //.. even more tags ....
}
</code></pre>
It can return (with <code>fields=id,title.rendered,link</code> as GET parameter)
<pre><code>{
 "id": 2138,
 "link": "http://worldofict.nl/tip/2138-rechtenvrije-fotos/",
 "title": {
 "rendered": "Rechtenvrije foto’s"
 }
}
</code></pre>
