Microsoft command-line tool to generate API clients
OpenAPI Generator
Generate API clients and server stubs from OpenAPI specs
About OpenAPI Generator
A tool that generates API client libraries, server stubs, documentation and configuration from OpenAPI specifications in dozens of languages and frameworks, keeping code in sync with API contracts. Because the code is openly available, it can be audited, extended and run on private infrastructure, which makes it attractive to teams with privacy or compliance needs. It is commonly adopted through containers or packages, evaluated against commercial alternatives and kept because it solves a focused problem reliably at scale.
