My latest post on TheNewStack is about how to handle those large OpenAPI files without losing your mind: https://thenewstack.io/openapi-how-to-handle-file-management/
OpenAPI for Web Developers
Back with the PHP Community for the first time in a while at PHPUK! This talk is about OpenAPI specifically for backend developers, and covers some common scenarios that might be familiar to you, along with some suggestions for what might help:
* You have an API but no OpenAPI yet
* Your API is used by humans
* Your API is used by code
* Your OpenAPI could do with some edits before publishing
* You like your API to be consistent and delightful
* You need a sandbox for your API
* The API and its OpenAPI are out of sync, you have API drift
