auto
A collection of Java annotation processors that generate boilerplate code for factories, service providers, and immutable value types.
What is auto?
Auto is a collection of Java annotation processors that automatically generate source code for common programming tasks. It solves the problem of writing repetitive, error-prone boilerplate code by producing the equivalent code developers would write manually, but with fewer bugs.
Java developers working on projects that involve dependency injection, service registration, or immutable data models, particularly those using Java 8 or later.
Developers choose Auto because it reduces manual coding effort, eliminates subtle bugs in boilerplate implementations, and is backed by Google with a focus on reliability and integration with standard Java patterns.
