#API

44 posts42 participants4 posts today

Just had an epiphany while helping my friend with the #OpenAI #API... Using an API is a lot like being in a relationship! You have to communicate well to avoid misunderstandings, know its preferences, strengths, and weaknesses. It's all about asking for what you need in a way that makes sense to both sides. Who knew at 19 I'd be drawing parallels between tech and relationships? This analogy really captures the essence of working with APIs and their modules! 💻

"Let me be blunt.

If your startup offers APIs and you don’t have a portal, you’re lighting developer acquisition money on fire. 💵 🧯🚒

Here’s what a good portal actually does:

Shortens time-to-value: faster POCs, faster adoption.

Reduces support tickets: devs can find what they need.

Builds trust: your API feels stable, documented, and ready.

Increases conversion: when docs show how easy it is to integrate, not just tell.

Still sending PDF onboarding packets to partners?

C’mon, boo. 🥲"

Quetzalli WritesQuetzalli Writes | Educational Tech Content & Ghostwriting¡Hola, Tech Writing Friends! Your API is powerful. Even your docs are pretty decent. But… where the hell is your developer portal ? If you’re shipping APIs and expecting developers to magically integrate without a centralized place to get credentials, try out endpoints, or even find updated gui
