Hi @jvmlet,
Before taking on the work of starting yet another generator, we took a long time to analyze the existing tooling (about 30+ at the time) and none checked all the boxes. None were even close if we had heavily invested in contributions. Let us know if you have further questions. |

Hey @jvmlet and @baywet, great discussion here! Competition among OpenAPI generators like Kiota, OpenAPI Generator, Orval, Fern, Kubb, and heyAPI is healthy and pushes the ecosystem forward. That said, as a noob focused on frontend clients (TypeScript), I’m noticing Kiota is losing ground in the SEO game. Since both Kiota and OpenAPI Generator support multiple languages, it’s hard to find clear insights specifically for the TypeScript client. OpenAPI Generator is not closing GitHub issues, making it tricky to gauge the actual state of things. The lack of recent comparison content for frontend use cases is frustrating. I’m stuck choosing between:
I'm just sharing my struggle. I hope visibility on workflow management and modern frontend (Next, Nuxt, TanStack Query, etc.) use cases catches up! The only way to decide is by manually testing each tool to see what fits best for long-term use. |

A little off-topic, not exactly generation of open api specification, but for the code generationI come here because one of the first results in google for var authProvider = new AnonymousAuthenticationProvider();
// Create request adapter using the HttpClient-based implementation
var adapter = new HttpClientRequestAdapter(authProvider);
// Create the API client
var client = new PostsClient(adapter);I saw I will explore for my use case how scary is to setup Kiota and compare it to NSwag. |

Given the latest MS shift to support /encourage/embrace /etc. open source, why
yet another open api generator? What's is wrong with https://openapi-generator.tech/? Folks will be more than happy to accept PRs from MS team that generates better clients. Why Kiota?Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
