Good documentation is vital for any API. Consider using tools like Swagger or Postman to create interactive documentation.

Automated Documentation Generators: Tools like Swagger for APIs, Javadoc for Java, and Sphinx for Python automatically generate documentation based on code annotations, comments, or metadata.

An API is like a contract between a client and a server or between two applications. Before testing the implementation, it must be ensured that the contract is correct by checking the specification (e.g. Swagger or OpenAPI). For Rest APIs, it is important that all HTTP REST semantics and principles are adhered to. This is all the more important for publicly accessible APIs so that all functionalities can continue to be guaranteed after updates.

Hi, while that is the case, same can be done with drf using drf-spectacular

I would suggest drf-spectacular instead because https://github.com/axnsan12/drf-yasg#openapi-30-note

Here is your answer: drf_spectacular

If you roll your own thing, you will probably just end up re-implementing a crappy version of something that already exists. Plus, you'll miss out on really nice utilities like this one.

Generate OpenAPI3 schema for error responses using drf-spectacular: No API is complete without proper documentation. This is work in progress (PR1 and PR2). Most of it is done, but I still need to add tests and documentation. Hopefully, that will be done over the next few week(end)s. But, if you want to get a glimpse on the expected result, here’s a screenshot of a test endpoint using swagger UI.
