> “Our main product was an SDK Generator that could take any OpenAPI specification and generate high-quality client libraries in multiple programming languages.” This is something I could really use! Is there a product that does this and doesn’t cost an arm and a leg?

That's what we do at Stainless. By curiosity, what languages are you looking for?

liblab.com All others are too expensive at ~250$/language/month (still less expensive than human developer).

Caveat that I work for Speakeasy, but there are a few tools you can look at: - Speakeasy - Fern - Stainless First SDK with Speakeasy is free and we also have discounts for companies who are just starting out. Feel free to shoot me an email if we can be useful: nolan@spakeasy.com :)

    I'd like to say this was a clever ruse so that real people could reach me and bots wouldn't, but that'd be a lie. I just fat fingered it.

  That's the official tool and has support for a lot of languages(probably the most). Granted last time I checked the generated python code wasn't great. Can't speak for other languages

Isn't this entire thing what WSDL and SOAP was promising in the early 2000s?

  I only remember converting WSDLs to Java.

There's a huge number of them https://openapi.tools/#sdk https://openapi.tools/#sdk Including the semi official tools https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator Now if you want multi language generation and especially high quality you may have to spend a lot of time evaluating different choices. I decided that the official java client didn't generate very nice python code and went with https://github.com/openapi-generators/openapi-python-client https://github.com/openapi-generators/openapi-python-client even though it's a small personal project with a primary developer+random contributions from users. It just seemed nicer to use for python. Finding which generator to use especially for JavaScript seems difficult
