What is API first and why is it part of the MACH acronym when it already has microservices and is headless? API first is fundamental to MACH architectures and is different to Headless and Microservices. This video explains what the differences are and why API first is a crucial part of building modern systems and architectures.
API first has emerged as a dominant method of software development due to the facilitation of agile and the support of cross-functional teams. #APIfirst is a massive step change from code-first approaches to software development that has been around for decades. Focusing on service consumers and how to deliver business value from your platform are the key tenants of this approach.
