Microsoft has introduced TypeSpec, a language for API-centric development.
Unveiled April 25, TypeSpec is designed to meet the needs of API developers, managers, and architects in an environment where delivering high-quality APIs and related experiences has become increasingly critical and complex, Microsoft said. The company described TypeSpec as a lightweight language that describes APIs using any protocol or serialization format and encapsulates common data types, API patterns, and API guidelines into high level, reusable components. It can define complex data and API shapes with minimal types.
