record4s --- Extensible Records for Scala 3, and Domain Modeling with Structural Types

In this talk, we learn about the basics of my library called "record4s", which provides type-safe extensible records for Scala 3. It runs on JVM, JS, and Native platforms. You will see how it is implemented efficiently by using Scala 3 macros, and how record types as structural types, which work without reflection in Scala 3, are helpful in domain modeling.

record4s --- Scala 3のための拡張可能レコード、そして構造的型によるドメインモデリング

Scala 3向けの拙作の拡張可能レコードのライブラリ"record4s"を紹介します。JVM・JS・ネイティブのどのプラットフォームでも動作し、型安全なレコード型を提供するものです。Scala 3のマクロを用いて効率的に実装されている点や、Scala 3でリフレクションを必要としなくなった構造的型として表現されたレコード型がドメインモデリングにどう役立つかなどを説明します。
