A review of tools that can be used to design APIs, understand how API design works and to mock infrastructure to test your assumptions. We all know that a happy developer is a powerful ally. The focus of this presentation is on the creation of APIs with the support of tools to achieve this. The goal is to create APIs that are simple for developers to understand and consume, powerful enough to be maintained by your business, in minutes rather than hours.
