Yancy v2 has been planned and in development for quite a while, but it is nearing completion. When v2 is released, these deprecated features will be removed. What will remain is a leaner, easier-to-use content management system for the best web framework out there.
Last, the OpenAPI spec was how the frontend app analyzed the data schema to determine what it could do. However, since every schema can only do the same four operations (create, read, update, and delete), reading the OpenAPI spec to handle operations is needless complexity. The generated API could be used by more than just the Yancy editor, so the code for generating OpenAPI specs from Yancy schemas has been moved to the Yancy::Plugin::OpenAPI module on CPAN.
When I started the Yancy Content Management System, my goal was to see how easy it would be to build a generic admin editor on top of a Mojolicious application database. Its design was, therefore, simple: A backend layer to talk to the database, a web application to view and edit the data, and an API controller to connect the two.
