This library provides a lightweight framework for collecting sets of typed fields. The project centers around two Classes:

Members enrich a generic Type with a collection of metadata (such as a name, a description, an I/O type, etc.)

Structs are nothing more than collections of Members.

While Structs can be valuable in describing Methods, they can be particuarly useful when describing Classes and shine under a Dependency Injection paradigm. In such situations, we need a data structure to define all inputs to the injectable Class, be they constructor or FunctionalInterface arguments, or simply Fields that must be injected beforehand.
