Just wondering if there will be more features coming to this library.

Nice work!

vkhorikov commented 1 year ago

Like what features?

vgallegob commented 1 year ago

Some brainstorming:

OneOf
Discriminated Unions
Converters to JSON, JSON Schema, NSWAG Schema
Collection extensions
More extension methods
Lenses
Effects
Official interop with FluentValidation, HTTPResults
UndefinedOr ( for null vs undefied in jsons )

I just think this is a great library and would love to see more of it.

I know some other packages already do that, but could be nice to have single dependency with same apis.

What do you think about this ideas? Do you have any ideas you'd like to add?

Cheers

I'd rather keep the library focused. It's already quite broad with several classes related (and unrelated) to functional programming, so wouldn't like to expand it even further.

vgallegob commented 1 year ago

Ok I do understand your point.

Would you not consider adding features in new satelite nuget packages? Like RxNet for example?

Perhaps a Either construct would be very helpful. Json converters would be too.

This IS a great library. Thank you.

Satellite nuget packages are good, but those need to be supported by someone else (with their own GitHub repos), I don't have much bandwidth nowadays.
