Referenced Data types

Other

Cause

Explore the `Cause` data type in the `Effect` type, which stores comprehensive information about failures, including unexpected errors, stack traces, and fiber interruption causes. Learn how `Cause` ensures no failure information is lost, providing a complete story for precise error analysis and handling in your codebase. Discover various causes such as Empty, Fail, Die, Interrupt, Sequential, and Parallel, each representing different error scenarios within the `Effect` workflow.

Chunk

Explore the benefits of using `Chunk`, an immutable and high-performance array-like data structure in JavaScript. Learn about its advantages, including immutability for concurrent programming and specialized operations for efficient array manipulations. Discover operations like creating, concatenating, dropping elements, comparing for equality, and converting to a `ReadonlyArray`.

Data

Explore the Data module in Effect, offering functionalities for defining data types, ensuring value equality, and working with case classes. Learn about the advantages of using `Data.struct`, `Data.tuple`, and `Data.array` for efficient value comparisons. Dive into the concept of case classes, including `case`, `tagged`, `Class`, and `TaggedClass`, providing automated implementations for data types. Discover how to create unions of case classes using `TaggedEnum` for streamlined handling of disjoint unions.

Duration

Explore the `Duration` data type in Effect for representing non-negative spans of time. Learn to create durations with different units, including milliseconds, seconds, and minutes. Discover options for creating infinite durations and decoding values. Retrieve duration values in milliseconds or nanoseconds. Compare durations and perform arithmetic operations like addition and multiplication. Master the capabilities of the `Duration` module for efficient time handling in your applications.

Either

Explore the `Either` data type in Effect for representing exclusive values using `Left` and `Right`. Learn to create Eithers, use guards for checking types, and perform pattern matching. Discover operations like mapping over `Right` and `Left` values, and understand interoperability with the `Effect` type. Master the expressive and versatile features of `Either` for error handling and result representation in your applications.

Exit

Explore the `Exit` data type in Effect, representing the result of executing an `Effect` workflow. Learn about success and failure states, matching with `Exit.match`, and the conceptual relationship between `Exit` and `Either`. Understand how `Exit` is a subtype of `Effect` and its role in handling results and errors.

Option

Master the versatile `Option` data type for handling optional values. Learn to create, model optional properties, and utilize guards. Discover powerful functions like `map`, `flatMap`, and explore seamless interop with nullable types and the Effect module. Also, delve into fallback strategies, working with nullable types, combining options, and much more.
