API Improvement Proposals

TL;DR: AIPs are lots of documents on how we do APIs.

Overview

AIP stands for API Improvement Proposal, which is a design document providing high-level, concise documentation for API development. The goal is for these documents to serve as the source of truth for API-related documentation at Thryv and the way API teams discuss and come to consensus on API guidance. The program is named and styled after Python's enhancement proposals (PEPs) which have seemed to work pretty well over the years.

Specific areas

While much of the API-related guidance is general and spans across all the different products at Thryv, we've found that some teams working in different areas may have different customs, styles, or guidance. To accommodate these historical differences, we've provided separate blocks of numbers for those areas where they might override or extend the more general guidance.


Getting started

New to AIPs?

If you're new to AIPs, check out the [Frequently Asked Questions][], which answer some common questions about how AIPs work and what you need to know.

Have an idea for an AIP?

If you have an idea for an AIP that isn't written yet (yes, there are plenty!) check out Contributing to the project to see how you can write AIPs for others to follow.
