Who sends API requests if not frontend developers?

[–] VanillaGorilla@kbin.social 16 points 1 year ago

Obviously the backend developer trying to test the API. Then creating an openapi spec and the frontend developer importing that to not writing the client by hand.

Besides that, that has to be the lamest DTO possible. They could have added some kind of skills array or an embedded address field to make it more than a flat object.

Basically every backend which needs to connect to external services. Like authentication/authorization for example.
