Open API (Swagger)

The OpenAPI specification (formerly known as the Swagger Specification) is a powerful definition format to describe RESTful APIs. The specification creates a RESTful interface for easily developing and consuming an API by effectively mapping all the resources and operations associated with it. It’s easy-to-learn, language agnostic, and both human and machine readable.

URL

Tools

SWAGGER CODEGEN

Build APIs quicker and improve consumption of your Swagger-defined APIs in every popular language with Swagger Codegen. Swagger Codegen can simplify your build process by generating server stubs and client SDKs from your Swagger specification, so your team can focus better on your API’s implementation and adoption.

SWAGGER UI

Swagger UI allows anyone — be it your development team or your end consumers — to visualize and interact with the API’s resources without having any of the implementation logic in place. It’s automatically generated from your Swagger specification, with the visual documentation making it easy for back end implementation and client side consumption.

SWAGGER EDITOR

Design, describe, and document your API on the first open source editor fully dedicated to Swagger-based APIs. The Swagger Editor is great for quickly getting started with the Swagger specification. It’s clean, efficient, and armed with a number of features to help you design and document your RESTful interfaces, straight out of the box.
