Review on RAML by Chris Hernandez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good tool but still has room improve

I like that RAML is open source and it allows one to easily create their own API without having to get too involved in the code. I dislike that RAML is relatively new. I have not heard of any companies that are using it yet. I would like to see it gain some momentum so that more developers are using it. I am currently using RAML to describe the APIs of a few of my projects. I like that it is simple to use, there are many tutorials on how to implement RAML in your applications. It is very flexible and allows you to write the code for almost any kind of API. There is nothing really bad about RAML. I think it could be better if there were more examples of what could be done with RAML. The documentation is not as good as other tools out there. I am using RAML to create an API for my application.
