Envoy Gateway API is one of 15 APIs that [Envoy](https://apis.io/providers/envoy/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Cloud-Native, Gateway, Kubernetes, and Traffic Management. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation, an API reference, a getting-started guide, and a GitHub repository.
