Unleashing Object Proxies: Building Type-Safe Wrappers for Anything
You must or must not have heard of object proxies before, but have you ever understood how to use them? What the actual usecase of an object proxy is? In this talk, we will do a deep dive into object proxies, understanding how they work, and the kinds of things you can build using them. We will build higher-order wrappers for existing libraries, and learn how to wrap over them in a type-safe manner.
