slate VS prism

Slate (Free)

https://github.com/slatedocs/slate this ! Big company use it ( stripe etc )

The second most common question being "What framework does Stripe use to build their documentation?" and the answer has unfortunately always been "They use a custom setup they built themselves and isn't available." － so then Slate gets brought up as a suitable replacement

DocuAPI is a multilingual API documentation theme for Hugo created and maintained by Bjørn Erik Pedersen, the lead maintainer and co-creator of Hugo itself. It’s built on top of the Slate API docs generator, which itself was inspired by Stripe’s and PayPal’s API docs. The JavaScript section of DocuAPI has been rewritten from Jquery to AlpineJS.​​​​​​

I've used Slate to document APIs which similarly will produce a local website. You can host that privately or there's built in support to push to github pages if you're hosting it in a github repo. The documentation itself is all written in markdown and managed separate from your API code.

If you are going to use Slate from the console you need to install it, along with all its prerequisites, as described here. In Ubuntu you can execute the commands:

Since the OpenAPI can effectively describe our resources, we can reuse it to generate a dummy server that can be later used for development and testing purposes without bootstrapping any actual services. There some tools available that can help us with this task, such as Prism, OpenAPI Mock, OpenAPI Backend and the MSW library we have already seen.

I use https://stoplight.io/open-source/prism with x-faker properties in my OpenAPI specs to mock APIs with dynamic content.

Haven't tried it yet, but discovered https://microcks.io/ yesterday. Otherwise https://stoplight.io/open-source/prism is pretty good

Prism does more than mocking; You can also use it to inspect any discrepancies between your API implementation and the API spec. You can find out more on their GitHub page:https://github.com/stoplightio/prism

use a mock API server that can read openapi spec (e.g. Prism)

What about skipping the DB all together and using OpenAPI w/ a Mock Server for local development https://openapi.tools/#mock personally like https://stoplight.io/open-source/prism

Pretty simple to run [prism](https://github.com/stoplightio/prism) locally for free.
