# Your first API

Source: https://docs.anetos.dev/getting-started/your-first-api/

- [Tutorial: build an API](https://docs.anetos.dev/getting-started/build-an-api/index.md): Build a JSON API for bookmarks: people sign up, get a token, and save links that only they see; a token made for a script can read them but not change them; and the API describes itself in OpenAPI for the apps that call it. About thirty minutes. The finished project is [`examples/bookmarks`](https://github.com/anetos-dev/anetos/tree/main/examples/bookmarks).
