What is Code Generation?

What does 'Code Generation' mean?

Code generation produces source code from a higher-level input such as a natural language description, a specification, or an existing schema. Output can range from a single function or configuration file to scaffolding for a whole service. The generated code is normally treated as a first draft that a developer reviews and tests.
