The original title is about API versioning using a contract-first approach. Let me rewrite this for a mobile feed.

Short summary

A contract-first approach to API versioning treats the API specification as a formal agreement between provider and client, reducing breaking changes. The article recommends defining contracts with OpenAPI or GraphQL SDL, adopting semantic versioning, and implementing automated contract testing with tools like Pact or Dredd. While it requires upfront investment, the approach aims to improve client stability and reduce integration time.

• •Define API contracts upfront using OpenAPI or GraphQL SDL to minimize breaking changes
• •Adopt semantic versioning and automated contract testing with Pact or Dredd
• •Maintain a deprecation policy with clear migration timelines for older API versions
