Sweet Apex Example

public class OperatorDemo {
    @operator
    public static Integer add(Integer a, Integer b) {
        return a + b;
    }

    public static void main() {
        Object a = 1;
        Object b = 2;
        System.debug(a add b);
    }
}

Transpiled Apex

public class OperatorDemo {
    public static Integer add(Integer a, Integer b) {
        return a + b;
    }
    public static void main() {
        Object a = 1;
        Object b = 2;
        System.debug((Integer)OperatorDemo.add((Integer)a, (Integer)b));
    }
}

Usage

@operator can only be used on public/global static methods with two parameters and one return value.

Some variations are:

Example	Description
@operator	Convert the method to an operator
@operator('name')	Convert the method to an operator with the given name
