I'm not 100% sold. I like some of it's features (e.g. the mentioned typed SQL safety) but adding all of it seems super heavy-weight. Lombok took a good time to become widely accepted and I don't think this will ever appeal to more than just a niche audience. At the very least, I prefer not to have any surprises in my codebase because it looks like Java but isn't quite so really. |

The vast majority of people that use it aren't, but that's a feature :)
Manifold isn't an all-or-nothing proposition. It's architecture is modularized so that you can select the parts you want à la carte as separate dependencies in your build.

But manifold surprises are pleasant ones :) As with any library or framework, it's a design decision: does it provide enough productivity and opportunities to offset its presence in your project? It's not a panacea.
