I built a code generator package in Kotlin which generates codes for Kotlin, Swift, Web (JS), and React-Native (TypeScript). Basically, you provide your class definition in a DSL style (Similar to TOML) and it will generate the implementation and interfaces of the bridge for different technologies.

This is great! We're working on code generation from class definitions right now.

Any good resources worth looking at?

I started by checking how you can write HTML using Kotlin DSL. Here is the source code https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.html

Now, I have to generate different languages once the DSL is finalized. To achieve this I use Flask framework architecture. There we have routes with HTML templates. Here each generator has its own templates.

Not familiar with GPs use case but TypeScript has a glorious compiler API that could handle the heavy lifting here.
