philippej added a comment to T258: Create an API.

RAML looks nice, but probably a bit too complex in the initial brainstorming phase. We could first define what "stuff" will be read / written / created/ deleted from the camera, then write the api specs.

philippej added a comment to T258: Create an API.

My current take on this, is that we should follow Laravel Lumen methodology, and first agree on writing the api documentation then implement it.

For a first step, I'd like to work with a minimalistic approach. Symphony seems a bit overkill for what we want to achieve. I'd start with the smallest working prototype than build on top of that.
