Research direction
Explore the swagger codegen template directory structure for Node.js server stubs (likely under modules/swagger codegen/src/main/resources/nodejs). Review existing templates to understand how Connect middleware is generated. Check discussions and linked PRs in the issue for prior attempts or ideas. Determine if Express middleware can be supported by modifying the template or adding a new generator option.
