MediatR Going Commercial - Here's How You Can Build Your Own

Summary

The transcript discusses Jimmy Bogard's decision to make Mediator and Automapper commercial libraries, exploring the implications for developers. The video demonstrates how to create a simple mediator alternative using abstractions and dependency injection, walking through the process of implementing a request and request handler using a movie-related example. The key takeaway is that developers can create their own lightweight mediator implementation to handle potential licensing changes or commercial constraints of popular open-source libraries.
