What is Swagger?

Swagger is a set of open-source tools, specifications, and libraries for designing, building, documenting, and consuming RESTful APIs. It simplifies API development by providing a standard format for describing APIs, allowing both humans and computers to understand the API's capabilities without access to source code, documentation, or network traffic inspection. It's commonly used for API documentation, client SDK generation, and automated testing.
