Project mention: The Stainless SDK Generator | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-24

Disclaimer: We're an early adopter of Stainless at Mux.
I've spent more of my time than I'd like to admit managing both OpenAPi spec files [1] and fighting with openapi-generator [2] than any sane person should have to. While it's great having the freedom to change the templates an thus generated SDKs you get with using that sort of approach, it's also super time consuming, and when you have a lot of SDKs (we have 6 generated SDKs), in my experience it needs someone devoted to managing the process, staying up with template changes etc.
Excited to see more SDK languages come to Stainless!

Java 8 client library for FusionAuth

Project mention: Java 8 still widely used | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-30

Concur.
Another data point. Our open source JWT library[0] and Java client library[1] both target Java 8 because that is widely used.
