Lombok is a Framework created under license MIT , and can be used freely in any Java project. Its main objective is to decrease the verbosity of the JPA, DTOs e Beans mapping classes, for example.
Its advantage is to avoid repeating "cliché" code, such as creating gets and sets for all attributes, equals e hashCode, toString, Construtores methods, and so on. That way, the code gets cleaner and clearer.
One drawback I felt was the need to install Plugin no Intellij e Eclipse . I believe these are the IDEs currently supported only.
I recommend using it.
