API4C Quick start

Follow these steps:

1. Choose specification format.
2. Share contracts via repo for circulation.
3. Enforce rules via lint for consistency.
4. Detect changes via diff for continuity.
5. Verify implementations via proxy for conformance.

Consider these tools:

1. OpenAPI as API specification.
2. Apicurio Registry as API registry for circulation.
3. Spectral as design linter for consistency.
4. OpenAPI Diff as change detector for continuity.
5. Prism as validation proxy for conformance.

Additionally, consider these tools:

1. Mockoon as mock server for emulation.
2. HTTPie as API client for exploration.

See API4C for details.
