Effect FC

Effect-TS integration for React 19+ that allows you to write function components using Effect generators.

This library is in early development. While it is (almost) feature complete and mostly usable, expect bugs and quirks. Things are still being ironed out, so ideas and criticisms are more than welcome.

Documentation is currently being written. In the meantime, you can take a look at the packages/example directory.

Peer dependencies

• effect 3.15+
• react & @types/react 19+

Known issues

• React Refresh replacement doesn't work for Effect FC's yet. Page reload is required to view changes. Regular React components are unaffected.

What writing components looks like

import { Container, Flex, Heading } from "@radix-ui/themes"
import { Chunk, Console, Effect } from "effect"
import { Component, Hook } from "effect-fc"
import { Todo } from "./Todo"
import { TodosState } from "./TodosState.service"

//           Component.Component<never, TodosState | Scope, {}>
//           VVV
export const Todos = Component.make(function* Todos() {
    const state = yield* TodosState
    const [todos] = yield* Hook.useSubscribeRefs(state.ref)

    yield* Hook.useOnce(() => Effect.andThen(
        Console.log("Todos mounted"),
        Effect.addFinalizer(() => Console.log("Todos unmounted")),
    ))

    const VTodo = yield* Component.useFC(Todo)

    return (
        <Container>
            <Heading align="center">Todos</Heading>

            <Flex direction="column" align="stretch" gap="2" mt="2">
                <VTodo _tag="new" />

                {Chunk.map(todos, (v, k) =>
                    <VTodo key={v.id} _tag="edit" index={k} />
                )}
            </Flex>
        </Container>
    )
})
