An open-source API design studio for creating and editing OpenAPI and AsyncAPI specifications.
Apicurio Studio is an open-source API design studio that allows developers to visually create and edit API specifications using OpenAPI and AsyncAPI standards. It solves the problem of designing APIs collaboratively before implementation, ensuring consistency and adherence to industry specifications. The tool provides a user-friendly interface for designing both RESTful and event-driven APIs.
API developers, architects, and teams who need to design, document, and collaborate on API specifications using OpenAPI or AsyncAPI standards.
Developers choose Apicurio Studio for its visual, collaborative approach to API design, eliminating the need to manually write specification files. Its open-source nature and support for both OpenAPI and AsyncAPI make it a versatile alternative to proprietary API design tools.

Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Offers a drag-and-drop interface for designing APIs without writing raw OpenAPI or AsyncAPI files, making specification creation more accessible and intuitive.
Natively supports both OpenAPI for REST APIs and AsyncAPI for event-driven APIs, providing versatility for different API types within a single tool.
Enables multi-user collaboration for team-based API design workflows, facilitating better teamwork and consistency in API development.
Includes validation and linting features to ensure specifications are correct and follow best practices, reducing errors early in the design process.
Requires building from source with Node.js and NPM, involving multiple steps like cloning, installing dependencies, and packaging, which can be cumbersome compared to turnkey solutions.
Focuses primarily on design phase without built-in features for API mocking, testing, or seamless integration with popular development tools, necessitating additional setup for end-to-end workflows.
Contribution process involves detailed Git workflows like rebasing and format-patching, as outlined in the README, which may deter casual or new open-source contributors.
