Swashbuckle
Swagger/OpenAPI tooling for ASP.NET Core to automatically generate API documentation and interactive UIs.
What is Swashbuckle?
Swashbuckle.AspNetCore is a .NET library that automatically generates OpenAPI (Swagger) documentation for ASP.NET Core web APIs. It creates machine-readable API specifications and provides embedded interactive UIs (swagger-ui and ReDoc) that allow developers and consumers to explore, test, and understand API endpoints without manual documentation. It solves the problem of maintaining API documentation that stays synchronized with code changes.
ASP.NET Core developers building RESTful web APIs who need automated, interactive documentation for their endpoints. It's particularly valuable for teams providing APIs to external consumers or internal microservices.
Developers choose Swashbuckle.AspNetCore because it provides comprehensive OpenAPI tooling specifically tailored for ASP.NET Core with minimal configuration. Its tight integration with the ASP.NET Core ecosystem, support for both System.Text.Json and Newtonsoft.Json, and extensible architecture make it the de facto standard for OpenAPI documentation in .NET web APIs.
