Often reduced to Swagger UI and seen purely as a solution for generating API documentation, the OpenAPI (fka. Swagger) Specification format offers many possibilities that span the full API lifecycle. In this session we will identify some of the many advantages of this API definition from design to production, including topics such as design, mock, development, test, documentation continuous delivery, securely evolve an existing API. All this contributing in accelerating and securing API's lifecycle.

API Days London 2016, take 2! I was very happy when Ronnie Mitra (@mitraman) from the API Academy invited me to do a fireside chat on API Style Guides at API Days London.

For many still known as Swagger, the OpenAPI specification is often reduce to auto-generated API documentation. But the OpenAPI specification universe is boundless. Design, mock, development, test, documentation continuous delivery, governance, deployment... there are countless possibilities that span the full API lifecycle. Let's board the starship OpenAPI to explore unexpected use cases, to seek out new usage and new ideas, to boldly go where almost no one has gone before.

I had the luck to go back to REST Fest, this second time was as awesome as last one. Here’s the video and slides of my 5 in 5 about HTTP Status Codes.

I gave a Star Wars themed talk with a lightsaber about my new passion, documentation, at API Days Paris 2015.

Yes, a talk about D-O-C-U-M-E-N-T-A-T-I-O-N. Yes, a S-T-A-R W-A-R-S themed talk. Yes, I gave this talk holding a L-I-G-H-T-S-A-B-E-R.

A ROAST API is a SOAP API made by people who have vaguely heard of REST API

Right after REST Fest, I had the honor to give my first keynote at the first edition of API Days London in September 2015.

Join me in a quest for simplicity from an imaginary bank’s IS depth to its API’s heights.

I had the pleasure to participate to REST Fest 2015, here are my 5 in 5 video and slide deck about hypermedia controls. If you can attend only one API conference, this is the one.
