Somewhat pedantic here, but would the authors use of python to generate C code be considered metaprogramming as opposed to code generation? I thought metaprogramming typically involved writing code that can alter/augment itself, like new syntax. Personally, I have found a lot of use in code generation, for example using RTKQuery's codegen tool that accepts an OpenAPI schema and outputs a JS client.
