  • Freeing Free Monads with Free ADTs

    Those are the elements of the program, and we mix and match them as we please. The way we transform those into a free monad is using purescript-free. In the "bad old days" (meaning a couple days ago, before purescript-freer-free was released) we'd use a function from purescript-free called liftF to turn the ADT above into a monad.
