What Hacker News says

4 sources
It doesn't matter if the project is driven by Microsoft or not, the cat (of automatically generated language bindings) is out of the bag. E.g. Zig is using the same approach without being an official MS project: https://github.com/marlersoft/zigwin32, and Apple has an automatically generated C++ API for Metal (https://developer.apple.com/metal/cpp/). In the future, the question won't be "what language do I need to learn to code on this platform", but instead "where are the language bindings for my favourite language".
