Speaker: Robert Delwood
About the program
“A Technical Writer’s Introduction to OpenAPI” is designed to give technical writers a foundational understanding of OpenAPI, sometimes known as Swagger. OpenAPI is a widely-used specification for building APIs, and it can be a valuable tool for technical writers to understand in order to document and communicate effectively about APIs. In this talk, you will learn the basics of OpenAPI, including how to write OpenAPI descriptions and generate documentation. By the end, you will have the knowledge and skills necessary to use OpenAPI to document APIs in a clear and concise manner. Let’s get started!
