[erlang-questions] [ANN] otp_vsn 1.0.0 - ?OTP_VSN

[Pierre Fenoll]

Howdy people,

I just released a library called otp_vsn which defines helpful macros if
you write code that spans multiple OTP releases.

This saves you the copy/pasting/tweaking of erl_opts's platform_define.
Header-only, no dependencies. Supports releases from R16B01 to latest.

For example if you want to use the #{maps => syntax} but still be able to
compile your code on releases earlier than 17.5 you can use
ifdef(OTP_VSN_17_AND_ABOVE).

This release is super fresh (published 15 minutes ago) and feedback is
welcomed!
I'm looking for macros that are re-defined often such as
* the maps thing I mention above
* stdlib types getting renamed
* functions being moved/renamed

I think this library could be the place to put them in & help the community
write code that still compiles on newer releases of Erlang :)

Thanks & have a nice day
