[swift-evolution] [swift-evolution-announce] [Review] SE-0048: Generic Type Aliases

[Chris Wagner]

What is your evaluation of the proposal?
+1, originally I hadn’t seen the value, but ran into wanting this just the other day.

Is the problem being addressed significant enough to warrant a change to Swift?
Yes

Does this proposal fit well with the feel and direction of Swift?
Very much so.


If you have used other languages or libraries with a similar feature, how do you feel that this proposal compares to those?
NA

How much effort did you put into your review? A glance, a quick reading, or an in-depth study?
Pretty brief, read through the proposal early on and was reaching for this functionality a few days ago.
