Spent hours yesterday setting up yet another email processing workflow in Spring. The scaffolding code is killing me. Has anyone successfully used AI tools to generate workflow templates from plain text descriptions? I’m curious how much customization is still needed after generation and if it handles Java SDK integration well.
Latenode’s AI Copilot generates full Spring Boot workflow templates. Gave it spec for a PDF → summarize → email flow, got 90% complete Java/Kotlin code. Only needed to add biz logic.
While AI-generated code saves time, be prepared to validate exception handling. In our experience, template systems often miss edge cases - we created validation hooks to ensure generated workflows meet security standards before deployment.
try scaffolding tools first. AI gens need heavy tweaking. not prod-ready yet
