Description

APIView shows types as HREF links and clicking on it will take the focus to definition of the type. This makes it challenging when reviewing an API that has class or otehr defined type as arg. If reviewer wants to know more details of the model/type definition, then they click on it to verify and need to scroll back to where they were to continue the review of APIView. This frequent jumping back and forth wastes lot of time when reviewing API and it will be helpful if we can show the definition of the model side by side. which can be collapsed or closed.

Another option is to show the content of model/type as popup view when hovering over the type and give a link in the pop window to go to definition.

@JonathanGiles has requested this feature to improve review experience.
