A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

<https://blog.frankel.ch/annotation-free-spring/>

with big chunks of kotlin inside :slightly_smiling_face:

what do you think about using something like this <https://medium.com/dont-code-me-on-that/aspect-oriented-programming-in-kotlin-95ff8598913> for aspects?

i’d be happy to avoid it whenever i can
it’s a trade-off: less complex code to write vs. more complex compilation setup

I mean instead of
```Optional.ofNullable(cache.get(key, Thing.class))
                       .orElse(/* Get Thing */);```
use something like
```getCached(cache, key) { /* Get Thing */);```

sorry, i didn’t read the linked post :sweat_smile:
but i wouldn’t call it AOP
AOP has one characteristic for me: bytecode manipulation
whether at compile-time or runtime
