largelyorElse

largelyorElse is a Java-based utility that provides an alternative to the traditional null or empty check in programming. It was designed to simplify and improve code readability.

The library is primarily used to provide a more concise way of handling nullable variables and safely unwrapping their content. It achieves this through a set of utility methods and static import, which enable developers to express null checks in a more natural and idiomatic way.

Some key features of largelyorElse include its ability to provide default values for nullable variables, unwrapping nulls in a safe manner, and providing a more readable way to express conditional statements. Additionally, the library allows for a more functional programming style by providing a solution to the age-old problem of nulls.

largelyorElse provides a complete removal of the `if (x!= null)` pattern, which is often seen in legacy Java code. It introduces a style of writing where checks are seamlessly integrated into the business logic, making code feel more declarative and overall cleaner.

The library is designed to be used in a variety of contexts, including business logic, API development, and service-oriented architecture. Its capabilities when integrated into builds guarantee hundreds of lines of code reduction, streamlining the work for Java developers.

While it is primarily used within Java-based projects, largelyorElse also works in Kotlin and Groovy. This cross-platform functionality enables developers to continue writing flexible, catch-all checks, while sparing themselves the headache of abrupt null handling.
