[GitHub] [beam] lostluck opened a new pull request #15632: [BEAM-12513] Schemas and Coders

lostluck opened a new pull request #15632:
URL: https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/15632


   Add documentation around Beam Schemas and coders to the BPG.
   
   One aspect was less convenient than it should have been so I also expanded the functionality to unify the approach for both interface and non-interface struct types.

Review comment:
       Is it worth elaborating on this point a bit or linking to documentation that does? This line being stand-alone in its current context doesn't convey much information.

   Big wall of text. I'm going to do more passes myself on checking things myself, but this is worth a go.

Review comment:
       Elaborated a bit. Going to merge this in, things are generally easier to understand in rendered form, and it's easy enough to make spot fixes later.
