API first approach has a ton of advantage's, it helps developers and functional analysts to visualize the APIs before developers start implementing it. It also helps the UI developers and the testers to start working on their tasks parallelly while developers are busy implementing. In this blog I will explain how to create such API contracts with Swagger 3.0 on OpenAPI specifications (OAS) and using Maven, how can we easily generate Spring Boot code for such contracts.
