Description

I have become a fan of Vavr for the "use values to represent flow control" model. Are there any plans to provide native support for Vavr types such as Option in Micronaut? More generally, is it practical for a user to add support for new extensions to the Micronaut infrastructure, as (for example) the various ArgumentHandler interfaces in Spring?
