  • Spotlight: Sentry for Development
    Spotlight has a pretty strong brand name for API dev tool - https://stoplight.io/ Could be confusion. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
  • Testing an OpenAPI specification in PHP
    However, we do not need to write the specification by hand, as there are GUI editors to perform that task. We show a couple of examples of Spotlight, which provides an easy-to-use interface:. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago
  • Rapid Prototyping of Design-First APIs in Go
    We use Stoplight Studio https://stoplight.io/ to design APIs, one of the advantages of Stoplight Studio is the Visual interface, it generates OpenAPI specs from the design and supports OpenAPI v3, allowing users to create, edit, and view API designs using the OpenAPI standard. - Source: dev.to / 8 months ago
  • OpenAPI v4 Proposal
    I'm sorry, but you have completely misunderstood the purpose of Open API. It is not a specification to define your business logic classes and objects -- either client or server side. Its goal is to define the interface of an API, and to provide a single source of truth that requests and responses can be validated against. It contains everything you need to know to make requests to an API; code... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
  • Examples of API Governance?
    One of the best tools out there for API design and governance https://stoplight.io/ you can also use the open source tool (also from Stoplight) called Spectral https://stoplight.io/open-source/spectral. Source: about 1 year ago
  • Review: 10 Top API Mock Tools
    Stoplight is a platform for designing, documenting, and testing APIs. Its "Mocks" feature allows you to create mock versions of your API for testing and development purposes. In addition to the mock feature, Stoplight also includes tools for API design, documentation, and testing, making it a comprehensive platform for API development. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
  • Tool for designing/prototyping REST APIs
    I'd been playing around with stoplight.io, but I found it fell short in things like being able to suggest changes, comment on the API, see a change history etc. It seemed to be more useful for documentation for APIs that are actually in production. Source: over 1 year ago
  • free-for.dev
    Stoplight - Saas for collaborativly designing and documenting for APIs. The free plan offers free design, mocking and documentation tools to get started. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago
  • Ask HN: Best and Worst API Documentations?
    Use Open API and then something like https://stoplight.io/ and you will get first class API docs that automatically update with your spec changes. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago
  • developing without being able to preview?
    We use Stoplight to mock API data, this should be done by the backend team so that you both know what shape the data should be before anyone builds anything. Source: over 1 year ago
  • Building an API? The 33 tools you need to consider
    Stoplight: Offers tooling across the API lifecycle that helps you build quality APIs efficiently. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago
  • Its been hell , Seems like the worst internship experience.
    They expected a single intern to replicate stoplight.io in 3 weeks? lol. Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Its been hell , Seems like the worst internship experience.
    I started my internship like 5 weeks back.Manager has no clue of what’s going on and is on PTO since the past 2 weeks (would be returning next week) . Mentor is some architecht level guy who has no clue of the tech stack I am working on (its JS and React,he is a Java/Kotlin guy) and he is not even part of my manager’s team(he is under the same org as my manager and both report to the same person) . He fricking... Source: almost 2 years ago
  • Launch HN: Theneo (YC W22) – Generate Stripe-Style API Docs
    Congrats on the launch, we're currently using https://stoplight.io/ which seems to be a bit more feature-complete but lacks the "assistant" bit I feel your team is focusing on more. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
  • Create Impeccable Docs With API Documentation Tools
    Stoplight is a complete API documentation tool that allows you to create, organize and share your APIs. Stoplight automatically generates SDKs for any language in minutes – there’s no need to write code or deal with complex build tools. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago
  • Building API Docs
    I write the OpenAPI spec by hand as I haven’t found any tool to match my needs (nor is the API changing too often). And for the frontend to display the docs I couldn’t be any happier with https://stoplight.io/ (using their WebComponent for simplicity). I think I discovered this on the “APIs you won’t hate” podcast. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago
  • Automatically creating and serving a OpenAPI visualisation
    - Automatic conversion from the OpenAPI-Json into a web frontend, like in the two example links. It doesn't really have to be as fancy, providing different formats for all kinds of client languages, just a plain 'this is the list of available endpoints' and 'this is the expected format of the json body you should pass to each endpoint' would be super awesome. (Iirc stoplight.io does something like this, but in a... Source: over 2 years ago
  • API Specification Design With Spectral and Prism
    Enter Prism. Like Spectral, it's an open-source Stoplight.io product that can be used to mock a server for testing purposes. It's ridiculously easy to use, and ridiculously effective to boot. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago
  • Ask HN: Who is hiring? (October 2021)
    Stoplight | Senior Frontend Engineer | Austin TX / Full Remote | Full-Time | https://stoplight.io/ https://stoplight.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?id=25 --- "Stoplight is expanding our engineering team with developers excited about working on a product meant for other developers.
