Thrift Compiler

The Thrift Compiler is a tool used in software development to create code that enables different programs and services—possibly written in various programming languages—to communicate efficiently. It takes a design file that defines data structures and service interfaces, and then generates code in multiple languages, such as Java, Python, or C++. This process ensures that all parts of a system understand each other’s data and commands consistently. Essentially, the Thrift Compiler simplifies building interconnected systems by providing a standardized way to define and generate communication code across diverse technologies.
