I built the Swagger Editor from scratch. I didn't use your code at all.

We used SwaggerUI for rendering in the beginning but that was replaced with it's own renderer. I blogged about it here: http://azimi.me/2015/04/23/swagger-editor-talk.html

Hi Mohsen,

Interesting! Re: SwaggerUI, it already existed as CoffeeScript and Backbone.js.

I built "Swagger Editor" for Tony, the creator of Swagger, as a paid OSS project; the screenshot shows the Swagger Editor back in Apr 2014 before yours existed.

I notice that a month later, you created "Swagger Editor" using the same technologies I chose (Yeoman, AngularJS, Ace Editor, etc) and took over the name.

I imagine the people who shared the private repository, including your employer Apogee, saw how fast I made mine and wanted to do their own from scratch, but I don't know.

I just took a look at your slides, looks like you've worked on yours for a year since, and use AST to understand where errors are, nice.
