September 2023 Summaries

Redocly is a popular developer documentation platform that can be extended by incorporating SDKs generated by APIMatic, a tool that generates strongly typed SDKs along with language-specific documentation and code samples from OpenAPI definitions. To embed APIMatic SDKs into Redocly's API Docs, developers need to generate SDKs and documentation using APIMatic, publish the documentation, and then insert the SDKs into their Redocly API docs by creating a new markdown page, customizing it with placeholders for the actual values, and committing the changes. Once the build process is complete, the updated API docs will be visible, providing a better developer experience.

APIMatic.io is a tool that generates strongly typed SDKs along with a complete API reference from OpenAPI definitions for various programming languages, including Go, C#, Java, PHP, TypeScript, Python, Ruby, and now Golang. The new Go SDK Code Generator is an alpha release and supports generating strongly typed, idiomatic Go SDKs for APIs. These SDKs provide a developer experience that reduces the need for developers to go back and forth between API references and code editors, making integration easier. The generated Go SDKs have features such as concurrency support, timeout and retries, context-aware calls, and strong typing for request and response data, which help catch code errors early in development. APIMatic also supports creating a complete SDK Reference documentation website with installation and usage instructions, endpoint reference, request and response type reference, code samples, and an API Console to make API calls without leaving the website. The platform is designed from scratch for Go, has strong OpenAPI coverage, provides zero-maintenance SDKs, and is backed by a team that delivers regular improvements and new features.
