Care to explain the advantage of starting off with the spec rather than with code?

- nesarkvechnep 10mo agoBecause, you can iterate on the spec with all the stakeholders without ever writing a line of business logic. There are tools which can create a dummy web server from the specification and you can build clients without implementing business logic. I thought the advantages of spec-first development are obvious but I hope I helped.
- yupyupyups 10mo agoThanks. The advantages of having a spec is obvious to me as well. I'm just not sure why building business logic that generates the spec (that generates the client) is a bad idea. That way you still have a single source of truth, and a spec.
