Kiota

Kiota

Kiota generates strongly-typed, lightweight API clients from OpenAPI descriptions in C#, Dart, Go, Java, PHP, Python, Ruby and TypeScript, with minimal dependencies and idiomatic code patterns, plus agent-facing plugin packages. It is delivered as a CLI, a container image, a VS Code extension and a set of per-language runtime libraries — not as a hosted service.
