I think if you want to experience a similar feeling, you should look at ZIO instead.
It makes things so much easier compared to cats-effect by being less abstract and more direct, but still works with the cats type-classes. Really recommended for the functional side of Scala.
- dkarl 6y agoWe're thinking about ZIO. It looks really nice, but we have applications built on a lot of different frameworks already, and I'm worried about how we can rein in our tendency to always add more technologies and never reduce and consolidate.
- valenterry 6y agoYeah, I can see that. The good thing is that you can replace cats.effect with ZIO quite easy - not so much the other way around once you use ZIO specific features though. It's a tough decision...
