Philosophy
Imagine that your backend team is writing an API in Java/Kotlin, how do you connect your frontend to their system without the need of communicating on every API change. This is not a new problem and has already been resolved with the use of a Swagger/OpenAPI specification combined with acode generator. This concept is calledcontract-first development and one of our maintainer wrote this amazing article showing casing the use cases of Kubb.
The problem is that most of them are good at onething: generating TypeScript types or generating React-Query hooks. Kubb is trying to resolve that with a plugin system where we already provide you with some plugins but also giving you the possibility to createyour own plugin.
