    The above referenced PoC service based on express uses https://github.com/apigee-127/swagger-tools which surfaces a web app by which front end devs navigate through the published API endpoints. They can use the web app to call the service via the endpoint or copy and paste sample code that calls the service. Most open api integrations support this kind of functionality.

    I interrupted my reading at 'Accept and respond with JSON' to write this comment, before I skipped over that section and returned to reading the rest.

    Folks that aren't aware of Webmachine should take a look:

    The 'Accept' header should determine the response type, but content negotiation is something that few bother to implement. Webmachine does that for you.

    Also, shameless plug for my OCaml port:
