APIs.json is an exciting attempt to standardize ??API descriptions (metadata). You may wonder ?? why we need such a thing as we already have OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, and other specs. APIs.json is a machine-readable format for API (Developer) portals or API search engines; check it out. APIs.json helps you find the API you need and quickly discover basic information about it. It does not duplicate API definitions (OpenAPI and similar) since it links them. APIs.io is an API search engine where you can see APIs.json in action.

Today on the Nordic APIs I've looked at APIs.json in this context. It's a standard for API metadata that has great goals and would benefit from wider community support.
