Show HN: Monocle – bidirectional code generation library

This is neat! I’m curious if you see this being extended for other languages, or the concept being applied in other projects?
As for similar concepts, several projects by builder.io have some overlap. Most notably Mitosis[1], but I’d be shocked if TS-Lite[2] isn’t using similar techniques. Potentially Qwik[3] as well but I’m not sure, I would have bet that’s using Mitosis but it looks like that’s the other way around.

Ref in cats-effect. When should I use it, and when should I not?

Without concurrency, using a Ref doesn't buy you anything over just using a var. If you want the benefits of immutability with an API that resembles mutability, you have to use something like Monocle.

A very popular Scala optics library is also called Monocle. I’ve been a happy user for a few years:
