In the event you need a bit more than the below would buy you (although it
sounds like it would be fine) Seaside has a REST add-on ->

I am not so sure what you mean exactly but this is my stack.
I use pure Zinc-REST on the Gemstone side and the REST API is described in
Swagger-Spec from within Gmestone.
Clients are VBA, Amber and Pharo and they utilize the Swagger API spec to
access the server.
Works pretty well and is much more preformant than the intial Pharo MongoDB
backend I initially used.
Have a look into http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~HeSe/Swagger-Spec
There you can find most of the needed Swagger implementation some minor
details like type constants are missing.
Once your Gemstoneserver knows how to host his Swagger-Spec you can host it
via https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-ui
This saves a lot of explaning time to client developers.
