Ok, so now ModelRestApi generates automatic OpenAPI specs from the CRUD endpoint, and made the spec accessible on /api/<version>/_openapi. This endpoint is protected, but will allow browser session cookies also (besides JWT).
BaseApi generates spec from YAML method docs. And offers 400-500 already bundled spec responses for easy referencing ($ref: ) and Rison jsonschema integration and self registering on /components/parameters I'm not bundling a swagger-ui also. Maybe this could be useful for dev.
