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…

Pros
  • Simple
  • Easy integration into existing frameworks/frameworks can already utilize this format (e g Spring )Easy migration from Swagger2.
  • Powerful toolset
  • Documentation available although limited compared others
Cons
  • None

Very useful tool when developing microservices and API management

I really like that this allows me access all of my APIs in one place which would otherwise require multiple applications for each service provider, or even worse go through their documentation site!

If your an…

Pros
  • Easy way around creating API documents from scratch; easy integration into existing project via npm install command (with nodejs); ability turn it fully automated eith CI tooling included within build script when building angular projects along side typesript code compilation process
Cons
  • Mostly okay, but...

A neat way making quick & easy API descriptions

The tool is very simple, yet powerful enough for any type of project you might have in mind without giving up too much control over your own code or data representation! We were able use this with other tools such as Swagger Editor which made integration easier than we would've expected given its complexity at first glance when looking into documentation alone - I can't really say that there's anything not working well but if nothing pops out then just give them another try because they're…

Pros
  • Simplicity is the best thing about RAML it's very easy to learn and understand, plus there's the option to use RAML with other tools
  • Swagger Editor for easy integration with other tools
Cons
  • Nothing really
  • I'm personally satisfied with the service
