what is an on the fly API documentation generator? Is it that you say what your lang and stack is and they tailor the documentation to just the lang and stack you're using?

No. The English text contains paragraphs of text that describe the relationships and interactions of the user configured data model. It's all machine driven. The examples pull from your actual data. It's not just dumb basic stuff I'm referring to.

I'll see if I can get a screenshot later

Airtable generates basic REST APIs for CRUD operations based on your database schema. Perhaps that's what OP is referring to.

That sounds about right and even makes sense. I would really like to work on something like that, maybe even open source.
