API-First Practices in Fashion Tech
summary
Inditex adopts API‑first across a 1,000+ person tech org, publishes >3,000 internal APIs and enforces rules with an API scoring engine (open source) that runs Spectral checks, breaking‑change detection with Prism, CI linting and snapshot artifacts. The platform auto‑generates mock servers and auto-generated clients for Java/npm/Python, wires specs to an API gateway with separate gateway config, captures metrics and alerts, and classifies APIs as kernel/shell/application. Outcome: a store navigation and checkout feature ships from idea to production in ~30 days.
