This is some impressive stuff! Congrats on a sizable achievement. I just went through your website, have a few questions...
Questions:
1. SCALA: is the generated code ONLY scala? are other languages supported?
2. CODE-GEN: is it designed only for code generation for a target http framework or does it actually provide an "API Server" itself ( e.g. like graphQL )
3. COMPARISON: the list of frustrations with other solutions, listed in your intro/technology goals are somewhat high-level. what are the "leaky abstractions" or "non-deterministic behaviour"?
4. SETUP: does someone need to know scala to use this ? ( depends on #1 above )
5. DSL : is the protoforce code implemented as a DSL in Scala or its a "language" in itself?
6. IDE : how do you check/compile the code? does it integrated with an IDE?
As a Scala Engineer myself ( though I mostly work in Kotlin now for Android/Server ), this looks great, but most Scala engineers i've met are focused on Spark, and using Play Framework/Http4S, etc. How big is the actual market for Scala API tools?
