Anyone here a Node-RED expert?  
Dale Lane in the AsyncAPI community slack is exploring how a Node-RED AsyncAPI plugin could work. He wants to auto-generate nodes for Kafka/MQTT/AMQP, etc from the spec. I think this would be pretty cool and would allow you to design using the Solace Event Portal and then autogenerate Node-RED apps!

They shared what they have so far on twitter: [https://twitter.com/dalelane/status/1367803076967604228](https://twitter.com/dalelane/status/1367803076967604228)

Also, if you aren’t familiar with Node-RED it’s a pretty useful tool for creating quick IoT type prototypes and easy to use with Solace due it’s MQTT capabilities 🙂
