OP asked about "SDK Generators for Application APIs". So my guess is like when you want tight Steam integration in your Godot/Unity/Unreal/etc game, or IAP for mobile game, it's not engine-provided, but some engine-external package/plugin/lib that's sometimes called SDK, sometimes not.

But just my interpretation here =)

Ahh appreciate the clarification! I was having trouble figuring out what OP was asking.

Yes, that was what I'm referencing.

I understand these engines have their own full SDK for developing with the engine, but I'm curious about the external ecosystem/integrations/libraries. It isn't a space I'm super familiar with, but I'm interested in it, not only from the standpoint of it being an interesting technology I've never played with before, but also because I'm curious if there are similar issues in the game engine SDK space as there are in the application SDK space.

Or maybe even a whole different host of issues and practices. Not sure, that's what I'm looking into.
