Dawn of API-first Design
Our lives are full of devices and they seems to be invading our lives in meaningful ways. With so many devices all around, they need to evolve and become smart enough to interact with each other and provide useful information.
System-to-system interactions will soon dominate people-to-system interactions. But how do systems interact with each other? They don't understand interfaces, but they do understand code, that is where API-first design jumps in. This shift in software engineering has already started and has proved to be the way forward for future of systems. e.g. smartphone connecting with smartwatch or even your car or any other IoT device (driver-less cars are coming soon..).
This new era in software engineering carries great potential for developers and companies - who will adapt. API's are already changing the game for developers and organizations who are taking the lead - as the future seems to be bright for API providers and consumers.
Some API-first design based projects are:
