# Scalar

## Core Principles

1. **Scalar replaces Swagger UI** — Scalar is the recommended API documentation UI for .NET 10. Faster rendering, built-in dark mode, code generation for dozens of languages, and full OpenAPI 3.1 support.
2. **Development only by default** — Wrap `MapScalarApiReference()` in an `IsDevelopment()` check. API documentation exposes internal structure. If needed in production, add authorization.
3. **Disable the proxy for sensitive APIs** — Scalar's "Try It" feature routes through `proxy.scalar.com` by default. Disable it with `.WithProxy(null)` to keep auth headers local.
4. **Security schemes come from OpenAPI** — Scalar reads security schemes from the OpenAPI document. Configure them via document transformers, not in Scalar directly.
