Is it possible to use Vinyl with tisch? #14

It seems as though PgR and Rec are very similar. It might reduce friction at the edges of this library to use the more widespread Vinyl.

Yes and no. At the time I evaluated Vinyl and other alternatives, and it made sense to do something else due to the many tricky instances that need to be provided, type inference, and also because I'm not a big fan of buying into Vinyl or any of the competing alternatives. In related news, I'm actually thinking of revamping records internally to use Vector instead, which should lead to a more efficient runtime, but also to more efficient compilation times with enough type level tricks which are usually not possible with an inductive data type such as the current HList.

That makes sense, thanks for answering.
