Too Long; Didn't Read

A well-designed API offers a few key items that make it enjoyable and easy to work with. Good documentation is informative and clear which allows developers to quickly start integrating with the API. A good API does more than just take input and return output but it also offers consistency. These key items can sometimes be overlooked or not get the extra polish they deserve which detract from the API. These include documentation, response types, and how they can be used to help developers interact with your API. Good API design can lead to issues and bugs.
