Writing Code with Code - Getting Started with the Roslyn APIs

Discover how to leverage the .NET Roslyn APIs to automate code generation in this conference talk from NDC London 2023. Learn about Steve Gordon's work at Elastic, where he developed a system to generate the majority of the .NET client for Elasticsearch from a simple specification. Explore the core concepts of the Roslyn APIs, including syntax trees and the SyntaxFactory, and see how they can be used to transform a JSON spec into a C# syntax tree, outputting thousands of classes in seconds. Gain practical insights into writing code with code and understand how to apply these powerful tools in your own development projects. Leave with a solid foundation in using Roslyn APIs to enhance productivity and streamline code generation processes.
