Description

What is the recommended flow after generation server? Should I change code under ./go folder? Or I need to override Api methods in my own files? Would the interface generation, in this case, be a better solution?

I guess that maybe one of the ways is the implementation of logic in a particular file and adding a file to the .openapi-generator-ignore, but how in this case will the update occur if the specification YAML changes?

I have tried https://github.com/mikkeloscar/gin-swagger before. I'd like this approach. Should we try to implement it here?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate the OpenAPI Generator's Go server generator documentation for recommended workflows. Explore options for customizing generated code, such as using the `.openapi generator ignore` file or extending generated classes. Consider how to handle updates to the specification YAML without losing customizations. Evaluate the feasibility of integrating gin swagger or similar approaches if applicable.
