On: Ask HN: Best and Worst API Documentations?

[bballer]

Use Open API and then something like https://stoplight.io/ and you will get first class API docs that automatically update with your spec changes.

Stoplight looks great, but I'm wondering if there are any open source alternatives?

[vladsanchez → and0]

+1 for anything open source or free.

openapi.tools has a list, however I havent found anything like Stoplight

Is it possible to pipe data from the forms directly to custom API endpoints and control the shape of the JSON payload that is sent?

[bo-dun → bballer]

Yep! You can connect to custom API endpoints from the dashboard or add custom code via our embed SDKs https://docs.feathery.io/develop/react/onsubmit

The fact that the XHR/network console on Chrome doesn't format JSON responses is insane. Your in the most popular browser in the world and you have to copy paste the JSON into a formatter to read it?? Really??

It's what the author is doing with this post.

[protoduction → bballer]

I don't think that's fair, the author is not selling anything - they took the effort to put together a good resource for others to use and are sharing it for free.

[khuknows → bballer]

I don’t think I see what you mean here. Where am I selling a list of business models?

[hobofan → khuknows]

I guess the interpreted the "opportunity" as "build a marketplace like these ones" instead of "those are marketplaces you can list your product on"?
