Have you ever used Golang? I have not needed to use codegen once.

It should be trivial for you to google for go code generation and the cases and reasons for it. That you've personally never done it speaks only to the bounds of the work you've done.

I’m playing devil’s advocate. Again, I worked with Go in a production setting for 3+ years and didn’t need to do any code generation. Maybe my use case was simple… or maybe it’s unnecessary.

The amount of time you spent doing whatever you were doing is not relevant. The google search you seek is mere keystrokes away.

Can you show me? You keep talking about Google search and yet haven't brought up a single example.
