Is there anything similar to automapper ([Getting started · AutoMapper/AutoMapper Wiki · GitHub](https://github.com/AutoMapper/AutoMapper/wiki/Getting-started)) available in Lotus?

I think it is an important concept in a layered architecture.

Do you have any idea for implementing Request and Response Models (for Boundaries) so there’s no Entities revealed in the apps delivered?

Thanks a lot
