Where can I find docs for Lemmy's API? (lemmy.ml)

The API docs on join-lemmy.org are actually JavaScript SDK docs, not API docs. I want to build an API client in a different language, not write a JavaScript thing using the SDK, and would prefer not to plumb the JS SDK code to understand the API.

Is there somewhere that has a language-agnostic description of Lemmy's APIs?

Forgive me for being to dumb; it just doesn’t seem as clear as something like swagger

You link to some Java script instead of full path ways.

Listing a few curl examples would go a long way to making the api more understandable IMO.

But maybe I’m just to dumb to understand.
