self: interface Stream<out A, out E = never, out R = never>A Stream<A, E, R> describes a program that can emit many A values, fail
with E, and require R.
Details
Streams are pull-based with backpressure and emit chunks to amortize effect
evaluation. They support monadic composition and error handling similar to
Effect, adapted for multiple values.
Example (Creating and consuming streams)
import { Console, Effect, Stream } from "effect"
const program = Effect.gen(function*() {
yield* Stream.make(1, 2, 3).pipe(
Stream.map((n) => n * 2),
Stream.runForEach((n) => Console.log(n))
