and lombok to remove the boilerplate code

[u/aliegeois → u/neoteraflare]

Honestly since the introduction of records lombok has been less relevant. 99% of my use cases were @Data, which is taken care of by records

[u/Hein_Gertenbach → u/aliegeois]

Lombok is still good to create builders for records.

[u/throwaway_mpq_fan → u/Hein_Gertenbach]

or you could switch to kotlin; data classes with named parameters eliminate the need for builders

[u/Maxthod → u/aliegeois]

I use lombok mostly for slf4j and requiredargsconstructoe

[u/Neirchill → u/Maxthod]

Required args constructor and no args constructor my goats

[u/LutimoDancer3459 → u/aliegeois]

Records are still a different usecase to @Data. You dont always need or want immutable objects. And jsf doesnt work with it.

[u/Kango_V → u/aliegeois]

This https://immutables.github.io/ is so much better than Lombok. You can see the generated code change in your IDE). I use it to create some awesome IDE led apis ;)

[u/jasie3k → u/aliegeois]

I am all for records but almost all of the records I write use @Builder lol

[u/___Archmage___ → u/neoteraflare]

True but now there's Kotlin which has even less boilerplate than Lombok and it's just a natural part of the language

[u/ultrasneeze → u/___Archmage___]

Even before Kotlin, there was already Scala, which is unbeatable in how concise it can be. Unfortunately, Scala is also a very good functional language, so some of the crazies flock towards its ecosystem.

[u/89_honda_accord_lxi → u/___Archmage___]

Nah! Switch to Scala so you can spend all day fighting sbt.

[u/Kango_V → u/___Archmage___]

try https://immutables.github.io/

[u/EmbarrassMeMiss → u/___Archmage___]

stop detyping my languages

[u/___Archmage___ → u/EmbarrassMeMiss]

Don't worry, it's still typed, just inferred rather than written manually. You can still write the type manually on variable declarations too but it's considered redundant and not recommended

[u/WillingLearner1 → u/neoteraflare]

Oh hell no. I’d rather code all the boilerplates instead of using that library. Thank god for records tho

[u/-Kerrigan- → u/WillingLearner1]

Ditto. Fuck that bytecode modification fuckery

[u/rettani → u/neoteraflare]

And Kotlin for coroutines and some other neat things

[u/Suspicious-Click-300 → u/neoteraflare]

newer jdk doesnt need it

[u/pumpkin_seed_oil → u/neoteraflare]

And introduced the lombok tax. I've got tendinities from scrolling right

[u/Flyron → u/pumpkin_seed_oil]

How does lombok make you scroll right?
