Driving better outcomes through API first development
summary
Claim: an API‑first workflow produces consistent, enforceable contracts and speeds parallel work. The demo uses TypeSpec library enforcing Azure REST API guidelines to author specs that compile to OpenAPI, an AZD template provisioning Container Apps, App Insights and CI/CD scaffolding to deploy a C# server, and OpenAPI generator plus Kiota-generated Python client calling list endpoint returns 10 concerts to prove end‑to‑end. Generated controllers and models are injected into the app, deployment succeeds, and the client returns predictable paged results.
