This Week in Effect - 2024-09-06

Sep 6th, 2024

Hi Effecters!

Welcome back to This Week In Effect (TWIE) – your weekly update of the latest developments in the Effect community and ecosystem.

Effect is a powerful TypeScript library that helps developers create complex, synchronous, and asynchronous programs. One of the key features that sets Effect apart is how it leverages structured concurrency to provide features such as async cancellation and safe resource management, making it easier to build robust, scalable, and efficient programs.
