Ask/Tell HN: Just launched an API for my Web App ...
4 comments
Here's the working example documentation - http://docs.doculicious.com/api/working-examples/get-entries
I've never seen your service before and have only taken a brief look (it doesnt look like something I would be interested in).
But you get +1000 kudos here for fantastic documentation. I find often stuff is so wildly underdocumented (I especially hate API documentation that just gets auto-generate, like a lot of stuff written in Python for example, with no organisation behind it) and it's a pain. Well done

Great documentation, like the previous commenter mentioned. Question, is this just a drupal installation or what?
Yeah, the documentation site is a Drupal install, with a few modules, some color changes and a new logo. The main Doculicious.com is all custom, but for the doco I didn't want to have to worry about building the site ... just wanted to get some content up there.
Thank you both for your comments too, I appreciate it.

To make it easier for everyone to use, I've spent some time writing the documentation, including working examples, in the hope that it will help others take advantage of it too.
I'd love to hear of other experiences people have had with launching API's and how you've helped your users start using them.
