How can I generate client code for .NET applications using AsyncAPI specs?

Question

The documentation for AsyncAPI says

Generators are available for mainstream applications like Java, .NET, Javascript, etc. You can check out this repo for more information.

However, there is no mention of .NET here. Am I missing something?

When you come from OpenAPI and it's OpenAPITools/openapi-generator one of the main differences is that the AsyncAPI generator allows anyone to create code generators, those we call templates.

You can find that list of public available templates here.

The AsyncAPI generator itself is written in JS as is the templates, however, they can generate anything you would like. Documentation, config files, etc.

For .NET we currently only have one template, and that is for the NATS protocol.

It varies which protocols are supported by which templates, as some support more protocols and others only one.

If none of the existing templates are of use to you, I highly recommend you author your own! Cause we really need more templates.
