![]() Where the API-first approach shines is on building a better API. It also enables teams to work in parallel. API-first helps teams to communicate with each other, without implementing a thing. In our case, the contract is the API specification. To start working on an integration between components or systems, a team needs a contract. This article is accompanied by a working code example on GitHub. Often, an API specification also becomes the documentation of the API. Moreover, most of the time we can also generate code such a specification. Those description languages specify endpoints, security schemas, object schemas, and much more. Via API description languages, teams can collaborate without having implemented anything, yet. Following an API-first approach, we specify an API before we start coding.
