Day 24 – Swagger API Documentation

✅ What I Worked On

  • Integrated Swagger JSDoc and Swagger UI for live API documentation
  • Added multi-environment server configuration (local + production)
  • Implemented bearerAuth scheme for JWT authentication
  • Documented all API routes with request/response schemas

📚 What I Learned

  • How to structure Swagger documentation for better readability
  • Configuring multiple server URLs for different environments
  • Defining authentication schemes in API docs

❌ Blockers

  • Needed extra time to write detailed schema definitions

🧠 Reflection

Swagger transforms backend APIs into an interactive playground, making it easier for developers to explore and test endpoints directly.
