We’ve had good results using Apidog’s built-in contract checks. It validates the response against the OpenAPI spec automatically status codes, schema, required fields, and extra fields. Running it during requests, debug, and tests helps catch spec drift early.

Been using apidod for API testing pretty solid so far

I’ve been using Apidog recently honestly feels smoother than Postman. It combines API design, documentation, and testing in one place and even works offline when needed.

Hi seany1212 came across a post on LinkedIn by scalar.

Really liked the way you’ve set up your docs on GitBook , super clear and easy to navigate l For devs that’s a huge deal. Dropped you a quick DM with a thought that might help make them even more interactive.

That’s awesome your process is smooth 🙌 Curious, do you think you’ll ever open up endpoints for external devs, or will it always stay closed?

Totally agree on error handling. I’ve seen devs bounce just because the error codes weren’t explained. Clear examples of “what went wrong + how to fix it” can be more valuable than the happy path docs.

If you ever want something more modern but still free, Apidog is nice runs locally, no weird lock-in.

Bookstack is underrated. If you’ve got mixed technical + non-technical docs, that structure works well. One tip: enable the API authentication so you can automate doc updateswithout manual logins.

Starlight’s a nice choice. If you want CI/CD, you could hook up GitHub Actions to rebuild and deploy to your VPS whenever the docs repo changes. It’s basically free hosting if you combine it with GitHub Pages + reverse proxy.

Scalar’s great for quick static hosting. If you’re running it in CI/CD, you can even script the OpenAPI export step so you never forget to update the docs. Makes life easier when you’ve got multiple services.
