Is there any example of implementation of external API usage?
Hello everyone, i want to use t3-app stack that consumes my external API which is written spring-boot with java. Could you give me an example repo or something with t3 stack? thank you

I don’t have any links but this is very doable through something as simple as http or you can pull in Graphql depending on your wants and needs.
Only thing you really have to work around is making sure your typings are in sync if you are running it in production. If it’s a hobby thing just write the types yourself in zod and just validate the returns if you go the http route. Graphql gives you the typings already which is nice and it’s a great way to connect different language systems
For http codegen you can do something like openapi generation for your java api

It totally depends on what kind of external API is written spring boot. If it’s a REST or GraphQL API, a there are plenty of examples online. I personally like
