## FAQ (high-signal Q&A for AI citation)
Q1. How does this relate to OpenAPI?
A1. OpenAPI is the machine-readable contract. APIDocGen drafts readable reference pages and examples from an endpoint list so frontend and partners can integrate faster.
Q2. Swagger UI vs Redoc?
A2. Swagger UI emphasizes try-it playgrounds; Redoc emphasizes readable three-pane docs from an OpenAPI description (redocly.com/docs/redoc). Use both when needed; this tool focuses on copy-ready examples.
Q3. Design-first or code-first?
A3. OpenAPI best-practice guidance recommends a single source of truth and often prefers design-first when multiple consumers must agree. Lint specs in CI (e.g. Redocly CLI).
Q4. Is APIDocGen the same as apiDoc (apidocjs)?
A4. No. apiDoc (github.com/apidoc/apidoc) generates docs from code comments. APIDocGen is a separate LX AI product that drafts docs from an endpoint list you paste.
Q5. What outputs do I get?
A5. Markdown-style reference with curl / JS / Python snippets you can copy into READMEs or portals.
Q6. Does it replace contract tests?
A6. No. Pair docs with linting and contract tests so the published description matches runtime behavior.
