   Three clicks, no info what effect 4.0 is, except that it's AI-ready, safe, good, and re-built from the ground up. No idea what it actually is.

      I had the same thought, until I realized the posted link is for their 4.0 release rather than their homepage.

      Their main page makes the product pretty clear.

         Still can’t tell if it’s a language, library or framework

            Have you tried reading the big bold text at the top of the page?

            &gt; Reliable TypeScript for the AI era

            It is a library.

               I&#x27;m with the sibling. A library for what? UI, backend, graphing, visual effects? What does this replace?

                  A library for effects. Algebraic effects, to be more precise.

                  To be fair &quot;algebraic effects&quot; is part of my priors. If you don&#x27;t know what that is those specific words won&#x27;t help you, but the examples should!
