Hello fellow indies,
I've got a question wrt exposing a set of APIs available for your product. Would you go the route of developing your own API developers portal or would you use an existing product?
Why would you rather build it yourself if you decide to go that route?
And for the guys that are pro existing API developer portal, what would you suggest?
I would start with using the existing API developer portal, as it would give you speed to make your API public faster. Then if it starts seeing usage you can roll out your own api developer portal. Existing API portal can give you much needed visibility in the early stage usage for your exposed APIs.
Thanks that makes sense. Any existing API developer portals you would suggest?
Postman is one. It gives you documentation feature out of the box.
For anyone else that might be interested, here are some options for generating developers portals using your openapi spec:
