WRITE OPENAPI WITH TYPESPEC

blog.trl.sn5 min read

Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

TypeSpec, an API definition language developed at Microsoft, offers a more concise and readable way to write OpenAPI compared to JSON or YAML. Drawing from TypeScript's syntax, it addresses OpenAPI's verbosity and lack of reusable components by allowing the definition of API patterns as reusable components, thus simplifying code generation and governance at scale. TypeSpec's flexibility and productivity enhancements could make API-first development practices more appealing.
