"Great All Round API Tool"

What do you like best about Stoplight? The ability to have all of our API docs in a central location is amazing. Stoplight studio is also an amazing tool that removes the need to know the openAPI spec.

"Best way to document and test an API yet. Stoplight has a holistic perspective on API documentation."

What do you like best about Stoplight? Stoplight provides a clean user interface and enables an engineering team to develop a compliant API with minimal difficulty. Other tools don't provide the same details, guard rails, and error validation that Stoplight provides. I can feel that Stoplight is made by API developers for API developers as opposed to either an experienced PM fresh out of college, or a hyper-detailed API wonk for whom working in the flat file itself would be more ideal.

"Ideal for large openapi specifications"

What do you like best about Stoplight? We needed a handy editor for OpenApi for our company, which will handle a large project and at the same time remain clear, and which will have a friendly free budget version. All we found were toys for children rather than professional tools. Stoplight perfectly meets everything our development team needs.

"Essential tool for API design"

What do you like best about Stoplight? I use stoplight as a service and as a standalone desktop app as well. The cloud service has excellent integration to other services like bitbucket, making it easier to keep your API reference/schema up to date, which is helpful, especially when you build/generate your routes via the spec automatically. What's more, the cloud version allows multiple to work on the exact specification simultaneously and can grant different access rights to various ...
