Consider Extruder for Typelevel incubation #57

Closed janstenpickle closed 7 years ago

janstenpickle commented 7 years ago

I would like to submit Extruder for consideration as a Typelevel incubator project. This arose from my playing around with shapeless, it aims to do a similar thing as Pureconfig, with a few differences which are listed in the readme.

With regard to membership criteria:

  1. I am the only contributor
  2. The Typelevel code of conduct is present in the readme
  3. Uses Cats and Shapless extensively, all returned types are wrapped in ValidationNel
  4. See the associated readme

@janstenpickle Welcome! Please add yourself to the incubator by sending a PR. (And sorry for the long wait!)

Pureconfig got also approved (#55) but I think a little competition can't hurt.

On a more personal note: adding the sixth Typesafe config wrapper to my bookmark list. Those are the new JSON libraries, I'm calling it now :smile:

@larsrh thanks very much, so happy it got accepted!

So it looks like pureconfig, case-classy and extruder all do a very similar thing, hoping we might end up collaborating on some things.

@janstenpickle Yes, that's the spirit of Typelevel!
