Description

BFF = Backend-For-Fronted

Usually mobile clients prefer to have all information needed to render a page in a single call. What we did for values projects is to provide a Restful API but also additional "feeds" for rendering more complex screens.

F.x. there is a /stocks/{id} endpoint but also a /feeds/stocks/{id} that exposes more information.

Research direction

Start by reading the BFF explanation and comparing the /stocks/{id} and /feeds/stocks/{id} examples. The issue does not name a file or specify the requested documentation change, so first clarify whether it should define the term, explain the feed pattern, or add examples. Done means the intended scope and documentation location are explicit.
