null VS cakephp-swagger-bake

I build a logging library for Go, because I couldn't find one that logs to stdout AND stderr. If you used a logging lib on GCP for example, all log output went into the same pile of junk and it was hard to find "real" errors: https://github.com/emvi/logbuch

Then there is "null", also because I couldn't find one that got both, marshalling to JSON and be able to store null values in db: https://github.com/emvi/null

And finally, our "flagship" open-source project Pirsch, an embedded library for web analytics: https://github.com/pirsch-analytics/pirsch

I do work in that space. I build APIs and I use them. I built a springdoc for php so I know a bit about what I am talking about: https://github.com/cnizzardini/cakephp-swagger-bake

The Postman UX is not good on it. It's easy to get lost in tabs, they should ditch the tabs and categorize requests under the actual endpoint. There is also no way to easily save like requests and give them better names that is also searchable. It's also built on electron which means its slow and clunky.

There is nothing good in this space. Swagger would do it if they let you save requests to local browser storage and just added a history dropdown to the endpoints. I use swagger and save common requests to a file system and open them in sublime. if its just JSON payloads I am working with it does the job.

This https://github.com/cnizzardini/cakephp-swagger-bake and this https://mixerapi.com have been the result of my work.

This can easily integrate into your existing github actions, here is an example of its usage on a project I maintain: https://github.com/cnizzardini/cakephp-swagger-bake

https://github.com/cnizzardini/cakephp-swagger-bake which builds out openapi from your cakephp applications meta data. One of many projects I took up to occupy myself during covid lockdowns.

Really anything modern works. I thought Laravel was supposed to be easy to learn, but I have only poked around. Symfony is fine, I've done a lot in it. I've used CakePHP a ton and as a shameless promotion I built this OpenAPI/Swagger/Redoc generator for it: https://github.com/cnizzardini/cakephp-swagger-bake/ and if my side project was further a long I'd of course recommend: https://mixerapi.com buts its still alpha.
