const detailedLogger = Logger.make((options) => {

Represents every level used by Effect logging, including concrete message
severities and the All and None sentinel levels.
When to use
Use to type values that may be either concrete log message severities or
logging configuration sentinels.
Details
The levels are ordered from most severe to least severe:
All - Special level that allows all messagesFatal - System is unusable, immediate attention requiredError - Error conditions that should be investigatedWarn - Warning conditions that may indicate problemsInfo - Informational messages about normal operationDebug - Debug information useful during developmentTrace - Very detailed trace informationNone - Special level that suppresses all messages
Example (Using log levels)
import { Effect } from "effect"
// Using log levels with Effect logging
const program = Effect.gen(function*() {
yield* Effect.logFatal("System failure")
yield* Effect.logError("Database error")
yield* Effect.logWarning("High memory usage")
yield* Effect.logInfo("User logged in")
yield* Effect.logDebug("Processing request")
yield* Effect.logTrace("Variable state")
})
// Type-safe log level variables
const errorLevel = "Error" // LogLevel
const debugLevel = "Debug" // LogLevel

import CauseCause.interface Cause<out E>A structured representation of how an Effect failed.
When to use
Use to preserve the full structured failure information for an effect instead
of collapsing it to a single error value.
Details
Access the individual failure entries through the reasons array, then
narrow each entry with
isFailReason
,
isDieReason
, or
- Use
hasFails
/
hasDies
/
hasInterrupts
to test
for the presence of specific reason kinds without iterating.
- Use
findError
/
findDefect
to extract the first value
of a given kind.
- Use
combine
to merge two causes.
Cause implements Equal — two causes with the same reasons (by value)
compare as equal.
Example (Creating and inspecting a cause)
import { Cause } from "effect"
const cause = Cause.fail("Something went wrong")
console.log(cause.reasons.length) // 1
console.log(Cause.isFailReason(cause.reasons[0])) // true

import FiberFiber.interface Fiber<out A, out E = never>A runtime fiber is a lightweight thread that executes Effects. Fibers are
the unit of concurrency in Effect. They provide a way to run multiple
Effects concurrently while maintaining structured concurrency and
cancellation safety.
When to use
Use to observe, join, interrupt, or coordinate work that has already been
forked.
Details
A fiber exposes both safe Effect-based operations, such as
await
,
join
, and
interrupt
, and low-level runtime fields used by
the scheduler and runtime internals.
Gotchas
Prefer the exported functions in this module over calling interruptUnsafe
or pollUnsafe directly. The unsafe methods are immediate runtime hooks and
do not provide the same Effect-based sequencing guarantees.
Example (Awaiting a forked fiber)
import { Effect, Fiber } from "effect"
const program = Effect.gen(function*() {
// Fork an effect to run in a new fiber
const fiber = yield* Effect.forkChild(Effect.succeed(42))
// Wait for the fiber to complete and get its result
const result = yield* Fiber.await(fiber)
console.log(result) // Exit.succeed(42)
return result
})
The Fiber namespace contains utility types and functions for working with fibers.
It provides type-level utilities for fiber operations and variance encoding.
When to use
Use to reference type-level helpers associated with Fiber.
Details
The namespace currently exposes type-level support used by the Fiber
interface. Runtime operations are exported as module-level functions.
Example (Working with fiber types)
import { Effect, Fiber } from "effect"
const program = Effect.gen(function*() {
// Create a fiber
const fiber = yield* Effect.forkChild(Effect.succeed(42))
// Use namespace types for variance
const typedFiber: Fiber.Fiber<number, never> = fiber
// Access fiber properties
console.log(`Fiber ID: ${fiber.id}`)
// Join the fiber
const result = yield* Fiber.join(fiber)
return result // 42
})
