Generic inline classes in Kotlin 1.7.20

Inline classes in Kotlin are all about bringing value semantics to the language – to introduce objects where only their actual values count, but not their identity. In Kotlin 1.7.20, they’re getting one step better: Under a new experimental flag, you can make inline classes generic for the first time!

Together with Sebastian Aigner (https://twitter.com/sebi_io), explore how generic inline classes allow you to get additional type-safety when using inline classes together with class hierarchies – constraining the types passed around at compile time rather than work around any limitations with icky runtime checks.
