kotlin-di-toothpick-example

playground to explore toothpick dependency injection

Why toothpick?

• DI without reflection
• app startup is damn fast
• might be useful for FaSS deployments - where startup time might matter a lot
• and testing ... its nice not having to wait 5 mins to build up a test context

$ ./gradlew clean build

note

I did not manage to configure the idea plugin the right way.
Build in Intellij does not run the kapt processor.
