We released a new version of ShapeShift (0.4.0) - A lightweight Kotlin first library for Object Mapping. Would love to hear your thoughts!
Object mapping is not a new concept. Java libraries like mapstruct (https://github.com/mapstruct/mapstruct), dozer (https://github.com/DozerMapper/dozer) and modelmapper (https://github.com/modelmapper/modelmapper) have been doing it for a long time with a large crowd of developers behind them. We just brought it to Kotlin and improved it where we found the need.

Easier DTO/Entity mapping
I've used Modelmapper in projects recently. Pretty neat.

We released a new version of ShapeShift (0.6.0) - A lightweight, modular, performant and extensible object mapping library
Oh man I had a sudden burst of nostalgia for dozer. Used that thing a bunch in the early-mid naughts with great success. I guess object mapping is an evergreen problem…

Lessons learned from previous projects
I've used DTO for a very long time. One of my earliest blog posts is actually about DTOs, bean mapping, and the Dozer library to automate the mapping process. I even remember that a fellow architect advised me to design a dedicated class for each layer:
What are some alternatives?
When comparing ModelMapper and Dozer you can also consider the following projects:
MapStruct - An annotation processor for generating type-safe bean mappers
Orika - Simpler, better and faster Java bean mapping framework
JMapper Framework - Elegance, high performance and robustness all in one java bean mapper
Selma - Selma Java bean mapping that compiles
Beanmapper - Library for converting from one Java class to a dissimilar Java class with similar names based on the Bean convention
reMap - A declarative mapping library to simplify testable object mappings.
