Which Classes Regain Spell Slots After Short Rest?

Only Warlocks have their spell slots fully replenished after a Short Rest, making them unique among the spellcasting classes in terms of spell slot recovery. This distinct feature allows Warlocks to regain all their expended spell slots after either a Short Rest or a Long Rest, unlike other classes which typically require a Long Rest to recharge their spell slots.
