When to use
Use when an already-resolved successful effect should bind immediately to the next effect while pending effects still use regular flat mapping.
Details
Success effects apply the flatMap function immediately. Failure effects pass
through unchanged, and pending effects fall back to regular flatMap
behavior.
Example (Flat mapping eagerly when possible)
import { Effect } from "effect"
// For resolved effects, the flatMap is applied immediately
const resolved = Effect.succeed(5)
const flatMapped = Effect.flatMapEager(resolved, (n) => Effect.succeed(n * 2)) // Applied eagerly
// For pending effects, behaves like regular flatMap
const pending = Effect.delay(Effect.succeed(5), "100 millis")
const flatMappedPending = Effect.flatMapEager(
pending,
(n) => Effect.succeed(n * 2)

type E, or succeed with a value of type A.
When to use
Use when you need to represent a lazy, composable workflow that can require
services, fail with a typed error, or succeed with a typed value.
Details
Effect values model resourceful interaction with the outside world,
including synchronous, asynchronous, concurrent, and parallel interaction.
They use a fiber-based concurrency model, with built-in support for
scheduling, fine-grained interruption, structured concurrency, and high
scalability.
To run an Effect value, you need a Runtime, which is a type that is
capable of executing Effect values.
