Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named. Read the repository's API guidelines and the issue discussion first to determine whether the project wants a terminology change from “API First” to “API Centric”; done would require an agreed decision and a clearly identified guideline update.

Description
Working in 'vertical slices' (API, testing, database, UI) is a keystone habit for Agile Product development. API First implies a horizontal development pattern where the API goes to a 'Backend' development team with its own Product Owner. DevOps teams in the BC Public Service are autonomous and cross-functional, working on the API layer simultaneously with all other layers.
The Government of Canada standards promote an API-Centric approach including principle 4, "Consume what you build" which states in part, "Build APIs in parallel with an internal use case".
Frontend and Backend teams introduce waiting (one of Lean's muda/wastes).
Please consider API Centric over API First.
