I actually got very very good at exactly this but entirely for the purpose of understanding and explaining stupid pointless business bullshit instead of anything actually useful. The upside is i could explain kubernetes to my grandma
Hey, that should make it easier to do the same in other cases too, so I think it’s a great thing.
I could if I read theory but it needs to be in OpenAPI format… unless
