AI + ALPS = API
summary
Shows a workflow that turns a plain user story into an ALPS document via a prompt library and an ALPS assistant, converts that to OpenAPI or directly to a Node.js Express prototype, and runs a live mock server to prove endpoints and actions (list, create, update, complete) actually work. Claims a working prototype in about ten minutes using step‑by‑step prompts and validation in the ALPS editor, explicitly not production ready.
