Library: Mapping Monads #4
Description
Outline
Provide support for easy-to-write mapping statements, similar to the fluent-api style of the modular validators spin-off project.
The reasoning being that most object-to-object mapping projects and libraries pull in significant amounts of external dependencies, and are relatively heavy-weight. They are often overkill for simple object mapping operations, and tend to conflict with other frameworks ( mostly due to incompatibility with other reflection-based implementations).
The aim of a mapping framework is to reduce boilerplate, and make life easier for developers.
Introducing additional failure points through dependency collisions makes these frameworks miss their mark quite often.
