ghc-generics-sop

A library to support the definition of generic functions. Datatypes are viewed
in a uniform, structured way: the choice between constructors is represented
using an n-ary sum, and the arguments of each constructor are represented using
an n-ary product.
The module "Generics.SOP" is the main module of this library and contains more
detailed documentation.
Examples of using this library are provided by the following packages:

'<https://hackage.haskell.org/package/basic-sop basic-sop>' basic examples,

'<https://hackage.haskell.org/package/pretty-sop pretty-sop>' generic pretty
printing,

'<https://hackage.haskell.org/package/lens-sop lens-sop>' generically
computed lenses,

'<https://hackage.haskell.org/package/json-sop json-sop>' generic JSON
conversions.


A detailed description of the ideas behind this library is provided by the
paper:
