Welcome

AIPs are design documents that summarize Google's API design
decisions. They also provide a framework and system for others to
document their own API design rules and practices.

Curious about the basics?

AIPs are a combination of design guidance and a system we use to
manage and track that guidance. Learn more about how the AIP program
works in the first AIP!
