morphy top-level constant

Morphy const morphy

normal class; prepend class with a single dollar & make abstract

abstract class $MyClass { ...

---

define non final get properties only (no constructor)

String get aValue;
int? get nullableValue;

---

to instantiate or use the class omit the dollar

MyClass(aValue: "x");

---

to implement an interface use implements

@morphy
abstract class $B implements $$A<int, String> {
 String get z;

---

ensure the generic names are the same between inherited classes

class $A<T1> { ...
class $B<T1> extends $A<T1> { ...

---

abstract classes; prepend class with two dollars

class $$myAbstractClass { ...

---

private constructor for custom constructors; postpend with underscore

abstract class $A_ {

this then allows default values by defining custom functions in the same file

A_ AFactory() {
   return A_._(a: "my default value");
}

it makes it explict that the default constructor cannot be used

constant constructors

abstract class $A {
 int get a;
 const $A();
 }

must add a const $A() constructor to abstract class
