The case-classy was a small Scala library, written in a functional style, to handle loading configurations. It was developed between August 2016 and April 2017. At that time, there was not any great Scala-FP alternative for loading configuration from HOCON .conf files. However, since then new alternative libraries like pureconfig or ciris have appeared, which provide more features and have received wider adoption. We recommend using those.
47 Degrees hasf therefore discontinued development and maintenance of this library. The source code is left here for those interesting in studying it.
Case classy is a tiny library to make it easy to decode untyped structured data into case class hierarchies of your choosing. It's completely modular, support Scala 2.11 and 2.12, ScalaJS ready, and the core module has zero external dependencies.

classy-core: Basic set of configuration decoders and combinators. requiredclassy-generic: Automatic derivation for your case class hierarchies. depends on shapelessclassy-config-typesafe: Support for Typesafe's Config library.classy-config-shocon: Support for the Shocon config library.classy-cats: Instances for Cats.
All module support ScalaJS except classy-config-typesafe.
