How can I make my own custom APIs like we see on newsapi.org website
I would suggest start looking into a framework. Personally I use Laravel/Lumen this would give you all the tools to emulate that API.

I would like to use straight forward vanilla JavaScript to create an AppSync web client front end. All the examples seem to demonstrate using React. Do you have to use a JavaScript framework? Any pointers to a good resouce would be welcome
I would recommend checking out Amplify - https://github.com/aws-amplify/amplify-js
But if you wish to wish remain as "vanilla" as possible then you will have to use the AWS JS SDK. https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js
I am using Swagger for REST API documentation which is built using Spring Framework. I am looking for better alternatives where I don't need to define complex resources again and again in every API.
Like Google has a well-defined documentation Google Doc. What frameworks top IT companies using for it.
Well I have advised two of those companies to use OPTIONS.
OPTIONS data can be cached at runtime giving a custom APIDOC per each ROLE/AUTHORITY.
That way USER will not see ADMIN endpoints and you can create a dynamic APIDOC.
Where I can learn about actions on google? I have read the documentations but still confused I don't have any experience in JSON
Actions on Google provides a convenient Node.js client library, which handles all the Conversation API JSON payloads for you. You can just use the high-level client library API instead: https://github.com/actions-on-google/actions-on-google-nodejs
Start by reading about JSON and understanding it, you should probably get to know some basic JavaScript.
This is a very basic getting started website:

If your using Java or Kotlin (or any lang on JVM really) you can use the unofficial Kotlin/Java SDK - https://github.com/TicketmasterMobileStudio/actions-on-google-kotlin
I want to create a pure rest api in yii2. I had google many keywords but haven't got any right. Please suggest me tutorial links or study material for pure rest api.
Here is a link to the documentation with an implementation suggestion for how to implement REST APIs using Yii2:

I'm trying to use the Swagger UI, and it says that I should begin by writing an api-doc that describes the exact api for a REST api. The problem is that I have no idea what this means. Is this document written in plain English? Or is there a certain format that will be able to generate the UI?
Thank you!
Swagger is a specification for describing REST APIs. Documentation of the specification can be found here - https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-spec.
Generally, there are two ways to document your API. If you already have an existing API with code, you can use any of the existing libraries (https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-spec#additional-libraries) to integrate into your code and generate documentation at run time. Some of those libraries also offer offline generation of such docs.
If you're looking to design an API, or would rather not integrate another library into your application, you can use https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-editor either locally or with the online version - http://editor.swagger.io.
Once you have the documentation, you can use Swagger UI to visualize and test it.
