Code Generation framework used in [RepreZen API
Studio](https://www.reprezen.com/swagger-openapi-code-generation-api-first-microservices-enterprise-development).

RepreZen API Studio supports API design-first and <a href="http://RZen.io/APICodeFlow" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">API
    CodeFlow</a> with a highly-evolved, extensible code generation engine. These capabilities are now available here in
<em>GenFlow</em>.</p>

# An Open Framework for API Code Generation

GenFlow is a comprehensive API code generation framework that supports a wide variety of code generation scenarios.
Here are some of its essential features:

* **Generates API client libraries, services, documentation** and other essential components, using pre-built or custom generators.<br><br>

* **Works with OpenAPI v2 (Swagger), OpenAPI v3, and RAPID-ML**, with an open architecture to support other API specification formats as input.<br><br>

* **Integrates KaiZen OpenAPI Normalizer** as a preprocessor or standalone code generator. KaiZen Normalizer consolidates multi-file OpenAPI projects to a single document by resolving references, applying defaults, and expanding cascading properties to ensure reliable processing by downstream code generators and API documentation formats.<br><br>

* **Runs from the command line, CI/CD platforms, and RepreZen API Studio** through Maven and Gradle integration, with all dependencies hosted on Maven Central.

* **Easy configuration** through a convenient YAML-formatted .gen file, with embedded documentation for each parameter.

* **Enables multi-step chaining** of code generators to create advanced API modeling and codegen solutions.
