djlazz313766y@devTea I feel like when stuff like this happens, the whole dev team gets the shit, so at the end of the day, it kinda doesn't matter, lol

LLAMS37486yWhy not agree the API contract up front and produce a swagger doc for it? Then frontend can mock it out to their hearts content while backend build it. As long as everyone sticks to the pre agreed API.
