      The swagger is a standard. Works out of the box if you build a Java application, documentation will be generated automatically.

    Hi Darryl - I’ve used Swagger.io (super expensive), Redoc (open source version), or you can publish public API documentation pages in either Swagger or Redoc formats using the product I’m currently working on at https://servicemocks.com.

    For KVdb, I'm using https://github.com/slatedocs/slate but would love to have a self-hosted version that also lets people try out API requests inside the docs.

    gitbook.com has a beautiful and clean interface for documentation purposes
