Idea: Extract core of Argument class into a Kotlin "Pydantic" style Library

Open ghost opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

Hello @ajalt,

I love your library, it is one of the best in the Kotlin space and very much useful, appreciate your hard work!

Coming from Python I was trying to find something which could save lots of time would be useful and will be a much better version of the data class which is in the style of the amazing https://github.com/samuelcolvin/pydantic

Looking at your code, you are actually implementing lots of the concept already in your code in the arguments package. Would it make sense to spin a core library from that code that would be a decent Kotlin style Pydantic?

Here to give a hand or anything else needed if this sound right.

Many Thanks again! 🚀 Dudi
