04. Swagger UI

Dynamically generated documentation from a Swagger-compliant API is displayed in the Swagger UI, which consists of HTML, JavaScript, and CSS files. The documentation files are bundled by Swagger UI to display the API in a web browser.

Besides rendering documentation, Swagger UI allows other API developers or consumers to interact with the API’s resources without having any of their implementation logic in place.
