OpenAPI (formerly Swagger) is the standard for describing REST APIs. Swagger UI for documentation, codegen for clients/servers, and a massive ecosystem of tools.
Reviewer scorecard
“React-based, versioning, and i18n built in. The most flexible open-source documentation framework.”
“The REST API description standard. Every API should have an OpenAPI spec. The tooling ecosystem is massive.”
“Free, open source, and battle-tested by thousands of projects. The default choice for OSS documentation.”
“OpenAPI specs are documentation, testing, and client generation in one file. Non-negotiable for REST APIs.”
“Functional but not beautiful by default. Mintlify produces better-looking docs with less effort.”
“OpenAPI specs are increasingly important as AI tools consume APIs. Machine-readable API descriptions enable AI integration.”
