Documentation and Examples

Motivation

This outline provides developers with a comprehensive guide on how to effectively use the apps-client library. The goal is to ensure clarity and ease of use by offering:

• API documentation: Detailed descriptions of the library’s functionalities through JSDoc comments.
• Code examples in the README.md file: Illustrative code snippets demonstrating various use cases and best practices.
• Additional documentation resources: Links to relevant blog posts, tutorials, and other resources for in-depth understanding.

API Documentation

JSDoc comments are used throughout the codebase to provide clear and concise documentation for each function, class, and method.

Example:

/**
           * Creates a new instance of the `AppsClient` class.
           *
           * @param {string} apiKey - The API key for your application.
           * @param {string} [baseUrl] - The base URL of the API.
           *
           * @returns {AppsClient} - A new instance of the `AppsClient` class.
           */
          class AppsClient {
            constructor(apiKey, baseUrl) {
              // ...
            }
          }
          

The JSDoc comments include:

• Description: A brief overview of the documented entity’s purpose.
• Parameters: A list of parameters with their data types and descriptions.
• Return value: A description of the value returned by the function or method.

Code Examples

The README.md file contains various code examples demonstrating different aspects of the library’s functionality.

Example:

// Fetch a list of all apps
          const appsClient = new AppsClient('YOUR_API_KEY');
          appsClient.getApps()
            .then(apps => {
              // Process the list of apps
              console.log(apps);
            })
            .catch(error => {
              // Handle errors
              console.error(error);
            });
          

These examples provide practical guidance on how to use the library in real-world scenarios.
