What: Swagger UI has bad-UI and extensibility. It's not intuitive and often displays information badly (especially for more complicated structs), which leads to initial API confusion. How: Switch over to use Rapidoc. This is our new api docs! Created the airbyte-public-api-docs bucket and uploaded our new html docs. Set up a CloudFront distribution to enable HTTPS. A copy of our html docs is checked in in this PR. As you can see, this is a minimal file that relies on a React component published by Rapidoc. It is pointed to the api docs in our master branch and will automatically update itself; do not expect us to need to touch this api file unless we want to make display changes. I consolidated all files involving api documentation into the docs/api folder for simplicity. I also moved the generated html file to the generated-api-html folder within the api folder to make it clear it was generated. Finally, added a README to document our set up. Benefits: UI is much cleaner. We control the html source file, which means it'll be easier for us to make changes in the future.

Our Configuration API is still in alpha and might change. You won’t lose any functionality, but you may need to update your code to catch up to any backwards incompatible changes in the API.

**Check it out** [**here**](https://airbyte-public-api-docs.s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/rapidoc-api-docs.html)**.** It is still rudimentary, and we will improve in the next couple of weeks.
