I think I agree with the people saying it can be good to develop your API in tandem with your app. However, I think that developing the API first leaves one in danger of being perfectionist and stops one adhering to ancient proverb, "Just fucking ship."
- maxklein 18y agoNah. Let's say you want to retrieve an artist from a query string. First, define your API for this: external->getArtist(string) Now program the getArtist function. Then make a gui that uses this function, deploy it and you have already shipped your first version with a single API function.
- maryrosecook 18y agoYes, I guess you're right that the simpler functions are straightforward to APIze.
