## Description

swagger-typescript-api is a utility that parses OpenAPI definitions to generate strongly typed data models and service wrappers for web applications. It transforms OpenAPI specifications into type-safe TypeScript API clients, removing the need for manual request and response boilerplate.

The generator produces interchangeable client logic via pluggable transport adapters, allowing users to switch between Fetch and Axios for network requests. It uses template-based source emission to inject generated types and methods into a consistent client structure.

The project handles the mapping of OpenAPI data types and JSON schemas into TypeScript interfaces and type aliases. It provides static type inference to ensure compile-time safety for request and response payloads across the network layer.
