prism VS redoc

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)

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.

ReDoc Interactive Demo

ReDoc focuses on simplicity and readability, presenting the API documentation in a user-friendly format. It supports dark mode, multiple languages, and offers a seamless browsing experience for API consumers.

There are a few other tools out there that are at least marginally better than the default Swagger UI such as ReDoc (https://github.com/Redocly/redoc).

When we redid the Mux docs (https://docs.mux.com/api-reference) we actually just decided to build our own renderer. It really wasn't as bad as you might think, at build time we pull in the JSON version of our OAS spec and render it as a static build in our Nextjs app. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't trivial, but the benefit of having complete control over the output has been well worth it.

Redoc: http://localhost:8080/redoc

ReDoc is a tool that's similar to Swagger UI. It also takes an OAS and renders an interactive HTML page with full API documentation details; however, it has a notable difference.

take a look

Redoc is an open source tool to generate API reference documentation websites from OpenAPI definitions.

FastAPI for Python has an awesome way of doing this. It comes with two choices: Swagger and Redoc, the former being more interactive while the latter is (IMO) more visually appealing. I'm sure you could implement one of these using Spring.

Starlite has substantially enhanced OpenAPI (3.1) documentation - in fact, its the most complete autogenerated schema around, and it ships with Redoc, Swagger-UI and Stoplight-Elements static sites.
