Find here all the things to know about Bump, API ecosystem and tech in general.
Who would have thought that breaking the payment API of the company I was working for at the time would lead me to write this post a few years later? Following this incident, I came up with the idea of a product that would empower developers to build and update their APIs confidently.

APIs have become increasingly popular over the past few years, enabling products, projects and people to connect. In this article, we will try to present a snapshot of the most popular solutions available as of August 2022.

OpenAPI is a standard for describing APIs (Application Programming Interfaces). The OpenAPI specification (or OAS) defines an open and independent description format for API services and allows both humans and computers to discover and understand how an API works and how to interact with it, without the need to look at the source code. More specifically, OpenAPI allows to describe, develop, test, and document APIs conforming to the REST architecture, to create RESTful APIs.

At Bump, we are committed to ensuring that your API documentation is beautiful and always up to date. To demonstrate the power of our tooling, we're going to walk through the creation of an API (and, more importantly, its documentation).

And this is why we are here: to make everyone's life easier: easier for the development team, the documentation team and - of course - easier for your customers to understand and stay abreast of any changes to your API.

As you may know, Bump was one of the first SaaS products in the world to support AsyncAPI 2.0. When the new version of the specification was released in September 2019, we decided to start working on it, and we released a first beta version 3 weeks later.
