## What it is
A curated awesome-list of resources, tools, and specifications for building RESTful HTTP+JSON APIs. It covers API specification languages (OpenAPI, RAML, API Blueprint), frameworks, clients, documentation, gateways, security, testing, and learning materials.

## Use cases
- find tools for building REST APIs
- compare API specification formats like OpenAPI and RAML
- discover API documentation and mocking tools
- learn API design best practices
- find API gateways and monitoring solutions
- get started with API development resources

## When to choose
- you need a starting point to discover API development tools
- you want curated links to OpenAPI/Swagger ecosystem tooling
- you are learning REST API design and want reference material

## When to avoid
- you need a runnable tool or library rather than a link collection
- you need GraphQL-specific or gRPC-specific resources
- you need up-to-date reviews of each listed tool

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: developer-tools, api-framework, api-documentation, http-client, testing, mock-api, api-gateway, monitoring, security
- domain: apis, web-development, developer-tools, awesome-lists, documentation, backend
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: awesome-list, rest-api, openapi, swagger, -schema, curated-resources, api-development
