Prototype getting typescript types for the frontend from backend open api definitions #128

Open essential-randomness opened 1 year ago

essential-randomness commented 1 year ago

We currently write backend response types 3 times: 1 — As a typescript type in the server 2 — As a OpenAPI definition 3 — As a typescript type in the frontend

This is not good. We should change this.

[x] Prototype generating typescript types from OpenAPI definition (TODO: remember library name)
[ ] Decide how to package typescript types to share with the frontend repository
[ ] Prototype adding strong typing to a query from the frontend
