Documenting an ASP.NET Core 6 Web API Using Swagger

Documenting an API is often regarded as a tedious, yet essential, task. In this course, Documenting an ASP.NET Core Web API using Swagger, you'll use Swagger (OpenAPI), which integrates nicely with ASP.NET Core, to take on this task. First, you'll discover how to add documentation for your API and add a UI that allows testing the API. Next, you'll see that built-in conventions already go a long way towards generating an OpenAPI specification for your API, but you can override them when needed. Finally, you'll learn how to customize the UI of the generated documentation, and what other use cases there are for OpenAPI - like generating automated tests for your API and generating client-side code from the specification. When you're finished with this course you'll know the ins and outs of OpenAPI and how it can help with documenting your API and more.
