So in the vibe.d example we would generate a file diet.di which
would include all the generated diet templates of the whole
project? Maybe 100 * 50 extra lines of code for a medium sized
project?
This is not debuggable, understandable or transparent.
Especially because the generated code lies inside a file of a
library which I should not need to know about.
Also I do not understand how we could expand template
instatiations. Maybe it would be possible for basic templates
that only take types but imagine a template that takes a parse
tree as a value. How would an expanded version of that look like?
