Answer 1

It may not be useful in your case since it seems you are not building an API.

But if it was the case and you were using Java or JVM (JAX-RS), you could have used Swagger.

It permits to describes your API in a JSON representation (like WSDL/WADL). And they provide an IHM layer that reads that JSON representation of your API. Here is what you will get: http://petstore.swagger.wordnik.com/
