Introducing 'effect': A TypeScript-focused library for error handling and concurrency

It explains how 'effect' serves as a standard library for error handling, concurrency, serialization, and transactional systems. The speakers highlight its usage in complex problems and inadequate solutions, and compare it to React as a set of primitives for building general business logic applications.
