maven-mvnd VS Kategory

If you work with any JVM-based language, such as Java, Kotlin, Scala, Groovy, Clojure etc., you will most likely have come across build and dependency management tools such as Ant / Ivy, Maven, sbt, Leinengen or Gradle.

When using build tools like Maven or Gradle, you can configure environment variables in the build scripts or configuration files.

For large projects, purpose-made build tools such as Gradle and Maven are preferred for managing the directory structure since they introduce additional semantics for managing test code and other programming languages (among lots of other things). Most IDEs can integrate with these build tools easily. If you're just starting out though, I wouldn't worry too much about these, you can visit them later.

Project Build and Management: Apache Maven 3 (3.9.5), Gradle 8 (8.3)

Apache Maven is a popular open source software to build and manage projects of Java (and also other programming languages), licensed under Apache-2.0.

Yeah, it has nice funcional capabilities and libraries (like Arrow[0]).

Last but not least, Scala is currently the language with one of the best effect systems in my opinion (https://zio.dev/). Kotlin for example has copied the approach with https://arrow-kt.io/ which I think is great actually. But when comparing Scala and Kotlin here, Scala wins by a large margin, it is a completely different world. It's like building a highly concurrent system in Erlang vs C.

Of course, if you don't want to learn things like union types, traits/typeclasses and effects (similar to async/await but more powerful) you will be annoyed by Scala. But once you learned them, you can never go back.

In my own code, I started to use explicit error handling. I'm currently experimenting with Result (from https://github.com/michaelbull/kotlin-result) and Raise (from https://arrow-kt.io/).

Are there any more-or-less established functional crates in Rust (similar to Kotlin’s Arrow)?

I wonder how the community sees adding Arrow besides standard Kotlin language features. Is it something that's still considered useful or just redundant and causing more confusion?

You can define a function like context(EitherEffect) suspend fun MyType.bind(path: String)like the ones in https://github.com/arrow-kt/arrow/blob/b608a054a5318fe57d7055c35bb64a5effb053b6/arrow-libs/core/arrow-core/src/commonMain/kotlin/arrow/core/computations/either.kt
