Myriad
A code generator for F# that enables meta-programming by generating idiomatic F# code from AST input via plugins.
What is Myriad?
Myriad is a code generator for F# that enables meta-programming by generating idiomatic F# code from abstract syntax tree (AST) input. It solves the limitation of traditional F# type providers by producing native F# types like discriminated unions and records, allowing for more natural integration into F# projects. The tool operates via plugins that transform AST fragments into source code during the build process.
F# developers and teams looking to automate code generation, reduce boilerplate, and extend the F# compiler's capabilities without waiting for language-level features. It is particularly useful for those building libraries, frameworks, or applications that require repetitive code patterns.
Developers choose Myriad because it provides a flexible, plugin-based approach to meta-programming that integrates seamlessly with the F# ecosystem. Unlike type providers, it generates actual F# source code, enabling better tooling support, compiler optimizations, and idiomatic F# constructs.
