## What it is
RapiDoc is a lightweight web component (custom element) for viewing OpenAPI/Swagger specifications with a built-in API call console. It works with any framework or none, and offers extensive theming and customization options.

## Use cases
- render openapi 3 spec in my web app
- swagger ui alternative web component
- embed api documentation in html page
- let users try rest api calls from docs
- customize api docs branding and themes
- view openapi spec with models expanded by default
- use api docs viewer inside react or vue

## When to choose
- you want a lightweight, embeddable OpenAPI viewer as a web component
- you need deep theming/branding control over API docs
- you want built-in try-it-out console with side-by-side request/response

## When to avoid
- you need a full docs portal with search and versioning out of the box
- you prefer a server-rendered static documentation site
- you need GraphQL or non-OpenAPI spec support
