As for the actual process of building the contract, what works well for me is using API Blueprint-style Markdown in a compatible tool like Apiary, which renders your content into Swagger-like documentation as you type. This way, I and others can mutually "live-scribe" the API contract as we discuss, and seeing it on-screen helps to get people on the same page (and sometimes highlight potential issues that would...

A common complaint about OpenAPI is that it’s difficult to learn and to read. Consequently, over the years we’ve seen many alternatives to OpenAPI, such as RAML, WADL, API Blueprint, and others.

For the context of this post, only the first task is essential. In it, the team works together to define the API contract. They discuss data format, whether the API will be Rest or RPC, authentication, data compression, and other vital issues. The delivery of this task is the documentation, preferably in a standard like OpenAPI or API Blueprint (my preferred format). - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

Google Cloud Functions is a FaaS offering from Google Cloud Platform (GCP). It allows developers to run their code in response to events, such as changes in a database or the arrival of a message in a Pub/Sub topic. Like AWS Lambda, Google Cloud Functions can be used to build a variety of applications, including serverless websites, data processing pipelines, and real-time data streams. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
