Oct 23, 2023

On September 13, 2023, Sentry hosted SF Python for a developer meetup in San Francisco. In this talk, Josh Ferge, Senior Software Engineer at Sentry, shared his experiences and insights on Sentry's journey of API documentation for their Django application. He talked about the various things they’ve tried, including: Schema / Example generation using dynamic tests; Writing OpenAPI JSON manually; Django Rest Framework & autodoc tooling around it; Problems with DRF serializers & performance, leading to Sentry custom implementation of schema generation using Python typing.
