Course Overview
Learn API-first development With Spring boot Kotlin Using Open API Specification (Swagger) and Spring boot Generator
What Does an API-first development Approach Mean?
API-first means that you treat APIs as critical business assets, understanding the value they bring to your organization. You design each of your APIs around a contract written in an API description language like OpenAPI for consistency, reusability, and broad interoperability. Starting with an API contract allows you to better plan the design of your API and get feedback from stakeholders before writing any code.
Many APIs in use today have been around for more than two decades, but only in recent years have companies begun exploring and adopting the concept of API-first.
The Benefits of an API-first developmentApproach
An API-first approach to building products provides many benefits, including but not limited to:
Development teams can work in parallel
Reduces the cost of developing apps
Increases the speed to market
Ensures good developer experiences
Reduces the risk of failure
APIs as First-Class Citizens
An API-first approach to building products can benefit your organization in many ways. And API first approach requires that teams plan, organize, and share a vision of their API program. It also requires adopting tools that support an API first approach.

Not very clear. First lectures are ok but then goes into much detail without clear explanation. I also had a lot of issues with installations and had to solve it on my own

Actually good course, but outdated because configuration for Spring Boot changed for Open API Generator

The author is very mechanical and gives a step by step, but doesn't give an overview of why. He should give a deeper overview of why API first development is important and the Open API specification. Instead, you are given a code walkthrough. I would recommend other resources (online reading, books) to get the information faster.
