Best tool for api schema

What do you like best? Schema editor with model references is very useful tool to quickly build and modify path definitions. Also it is possible to share public documentation based on scheme. What do you dislike? No support for OAS 3. No possibility to add custom lint rules. Recommendations to others considering the product: Try to use it for free. Organizations are good way to group your projects. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? ...

Pretty good tool, completely fulfills my needs for API documentation

What do you like best? I like the phases in the publishing process: so be able to edit, save, but not publish if it is not finished. I like the extensive options in the editor - I still haven't found a use case that is not supported. What do you dislike? I don't like it that it seems a little bit too strict - so I don't know how to define freestyle web-socket communication. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? We have documented an API ...

A good tool to start planning and documenting your API

What do you like best? Easy to generate and structure your API documentation. Also supporting hosting multiple APIs with share models and information. What do you dislike? The audit log is useless in finding out the changes to the document by other people. We were looking for a tool to manage and monitor the API, but Stoplight could not fit the bill here. What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized? To plan and document our APIs, and keep track ...
