Have you used boost::hana? What are your thoughts on it?
I've looked at it and concluded that it didn't really offer
anything substantial for me over what I can do with C++17 and my
own minor extensions to the C++ standard lib.
But I'm not really keen on pulling in boost in general as the
best parts of it ends up in the C++ standard anyway when it is
mature...
What specifically are you finding in boost::hana that justifies
adding it as a dependency?
