• Netflix Uses Java

  Interesting the article jumps straight from REST to GraphQL and forgets Falcor[0] - Netflix's alternative vision for federated services. For a while it looked like it might be a contender to GraphQL but it never really seemed to take off despite being simpler to adopt.

• What's a time you pushed for a solution, only to find out later it was the wrong one? What did you learn?

  I pushed for Falcor over GraphQL in 2016. I still think Falcor was a more elegant core idea, but the implementation, tooling, and community never materialized like it did with GraphQL, and now Falcor is relatively niche and obscure. Netflix wasn't willing or able to promote it like Facebook did with GraphQL. That was beginning to be apparent in 2016, but I liked the concept too much. Source: over 2 years ago

• API Product Managers, what's your workflow when designing and maintaining an API?

  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...

• The Sacred Steps to Achieving Good Documentation

  The first big challenge you might face is which platform to use for your docs. Some simple projects just use the github wiki as a way to serve the documentation, which works well for simpler things, but the reality is that, for medium to large projects, such tools are far from being enough, so you'll probably have to resort to some other options such as Apiary, Read the Docs or even a combination of tools, such as... - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
