Library for tasks or threads

[havok4u]

What is the best library for Tasks and/or threads. I see rad, but it doesn't really seem to be actively maintained and if it were actively being used the error I get wouldn't manifest.

Did you check https://packages.gleam.run/?search=task
Did you ask on discord https://discord.gg/twY7ZhKTM3 ?

I did not ask on discord as I don't have an account right now. This was listed as the discord alternate. Midas looks interesting and seems to have active development, I'll look into that. Thanks

Midas is a dependency/effect injection library, it is unrelated to threading/parallelism.

That said I'd like if there was something like https://getoban.pro/ for gleam without having to go through elixir.

Oban is a durable work queue library, it uses threading/parallelism but it's not a library for that.

Hi @havok4u !

Here on the Erlang VM we don't use threads, we use actors. The library you want is gleam_otp.

Rad is a command line task runner, it's unrelated to threading/parallelism.
