This Week in Effect - 2024-10-25

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 key feature 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.

To get started, below you’ll find links to our documentation as well as our guide for installing Effect. Enjoy!

Recent major updates:

We’re excited to announce that with this release, the effect/schema package has been merged into the Effect core library. By installing the newest version of Effect, all data validation functionalities previously provided by the Schema package will be available without needing to install any other package.

Here are all the technical changes from this week (note that changes included in the 3.10 release will not be listed)

That’s all for this week. Thank you for being a vital part of our community. Your feedback is highly valued as we fine-tune this format. Feel free to share your thoughts, and we’ll do our best to tailor it to the needs of our community.
