To clarify, I mean writing scripts that generate or modify classes for you instead of manually writing them every time, for example if you want to replace reflection with a ton of verbose repetitive code for performance reasons I guess?

My only experience with this is just plain old manual txt generation with something like python, and maintaining legacy t4/tt VS files but those are kind of a nightmare.

What’s a good modern way of accomplishing this, have there been any improvements in this area?

    For simple snippets like templates I’m using Obsidian and Obsidian Templater ( - For any programmer I’d consider Obsidian the best note-taking-app by miles.)

    For more complicated stuff I used to just build generators in code, but as you mentioned, that’s kind of a nightmare to manage. So now I usually use Liquid Templates - and a custom parser I made to process them
