Project Submission: scala2-notgiven-compat #171
Description
Project Name
(Definitely open to a rename, that's not particularly inspired 😆)
Project Short Description
Scala 3 introduced scala.util.NotGiven: a special class used to implement negation in implicit search.
While techniques existed to implement this functionality in Scala 2, the NotGiven trait was not backported to Scala 2. This makes cross-compilation more frustrating than it needs to be, so this library was created to make a single compat.NotGiven available to Scala 2.12, 2.13, and 3.
This is based on prior work by Shapeless and fs2.
Any project that already includes fs2 can use fs2.compat.NotGiven. But it would be nice to have this available without pulling in all of fs2 for projects that wouldn't already have it as a dependency.
