Top Features for Redocly's Developer Catalog

Based on market leader analysis, here are five key features for Redocly to consider:

1. Extensive Integration Ecosystem
   Redocly should integrate with a wide range of development tools—like Kubernetes, Terraform, GitHub, and Jenkins—to consolidate data in one place. This creates a single trusted source for service information.

2. Comprehensive Relationship Mapping
   Build a system that not only catalogs services but also visualizes their relationships and dependencies. This approach, similar to creating a "software graph" instead of a spreadsheet, helps developers see how services interact, track dependencies, and understand the impact of changes.

3. Clearly define service ownership

4. Standards Enforcement with Scorecards
   Include customizable standards templates and automated compliance checks.

5. Entity Monitoring
   Implement real-time monitoring to track the health and events of each service entity.

6. Add possibility of attaching readme / docs to entities

7. Make it possible to create entities for non-technical people maybe with help of some kind tamplates?
