What Hacker News says

I guess I'll take this opportunity to plug my own little tool for this. I use Swagger [1] and more specifically Swagger UI [2] to generate interactive web-based documentation like the sample at [3]. But rather than relying upon source code annotations to have swagger auto-generate the documentation, or hand-writing swagger's verbose JSON structure, I created a little DSL for it as demonstrated at [4] and available on GitHub at [5]. Let me know if you have any questions about swagger-dsl. It's under-documented right now but perfectly functional. I use it often.
