For many code generation is the durian fruit of code smells. Reheating fish in the office microwave levels of bad ideas. For others, it may seem too arcane or complicated. In reality, it doesn't have to be hard at all. In this talk, we'll build a case for code generation by looking at some use cases and scenarios where generating code can be an absolute game changer. We'll also go over some of the options available to developers that make generating your own code super easy. It's easier than you think and more fun than you might expect.
