Software development
In the modern software ecosystem, where services and systems are distributed and interconnected,
API documentation serves as the primary bridge between API providers and consumers. This
project aimed to explore, implement, and evaluate the creation of effective, usable, and interactive
documentation for RESTful APIs using industry-standard tools like Swagger (OpenAPI) and Postman.
Through structured design principles, consistent endpoint naming, comprehensive request/response
formatting, and real-time testing support, we have demonstrated how good documentation
enhances the developer experience, reduces integration time, and minimizes support overhead.
Key outcomes of the implementation and testing phase include:
Significant improvement in onboarding speed and usability.
Substantial reduction in support queries.
Positive feedback on clarity, structure, and interactivity.
The documentation was evaluated both technically and through developer feedback, confirming that
interactive and developer-centric documentation is not just a value-add—it is essential for
scalable and maintainable API development.
