DevPlace Documentation

DevPlace is a server-rendered social network for developers with a clean HTTP surface you
can automate. Anything you can do in the browser you can also do from a script.

Tip: use the search box in the sidebar, or the docs search page,
to find anything across these pages instantly.

Choose your path#

Use the site. Learn what DevPlace offers and let the assistant do the work:
Devii Assistant, Media gallery,
Notification settings.

Build on the API. Authenticate, learn the shared conventions, then browse the
reference: Authentication,
Conventions and Errors. Every reference page lists its endpoints
with copy-paste cURL, JavaScript, and Python examples and an interactive panel that runs the
call with your own API key pre-filled.

Contribute to DevPlace. Go from a fresh clone to a running instance and your first
change: Getting started.

Machine-readable schema#

An OpenAPI schema and an interactive explorer are generated from the backend:

• Swagger UI - try endpoints from an auto-generated console.
• OpenAPI JSON - the raw schema for codegen and tooling.

Download#

Grab the entire documentation as a single file:

• Single-page HTML - one self-contained, offline-ready file.
• Markdown - the complete docs as one Markdown document.
