Why developers ❤️ Froporec
⚡️
Zero runtime cost
Everything happens during compilation via javax.annotation.processing. Your byte-code stays lean; no reflection, no Lombok-style surprises.
🛡️
Deep immutability
Generated records recursively copy collections and nested POJOs to guarantee true immutability & thread-safety.
🚀
Turbo productivity
Factory methods, field constants & record “extension” slash boilerplate and make refactoring trivial.
