API-Led Connectivity & Design-First: MuleSoft promotes a "Design-First" approach. You first write the RAML or OAS specification.
MuleSoft scaffolding: Once the specification is designed and published to Exchange, the developer imports it into Anypoint Studio. Studio then scaffolds (automatically generates) the Mule flows based on the API Specification.
The Workflow:
Design: Create the API contract (RAML/OAS).
Publish: Publish to Exchange.
Build (Answer A): Use the API specification to generate the flow structure (APIkit Router) and implement the logic.
This ensures the implementation strictly matches the design defined in the earlier phases.
