Everyone MUST follow the API First principle.
The API first principle is an extension of design-first principle. Therefore, a development of an API MUST always start with API design without any upfront coding activities.
API design (e.g., description, schema) is the master of truth, not the API implementation.
API implementation MUST always be compliant to a particular API design which represents the between API, and it's consumer.
