Everything I know about good API design

A personal relevance score

80–100: high value. 70–79: worth the time. Below 70: below the usual publication threshold.

Evidence-reviewed score based on available publisher text. Evidence is sampled with gaps, so the score reflects the visible argument and examples, not a complete judgment of every section.

Scores reflect one reader’s profile, not an objective quality rating. Best is a separate personal selection.
