Django REST Framework has this built in, and is very easy to turn on. I always turn it on even though my users almost exclusively use json. I had one user use xml once, because they didnt know how to use json in whatever it was they were using. Noone has ever used yaml, but i leave it there just in case.

if you do it right, using the standard html content type returns a human browseable representation of your api with forms for posts and whatnot.

Omg I love the browsable api of Django. I am searching for something similar for .NET - any pointers anyone?
That's not browsable. Swagger is just a prefilled Postman. I mean some UI where I can navigate and discover the resources directly.
