Welcome! This is a small project to compare the ZIO library to "vanilla" Scala. The hope is that it can be a sandbox for you to play around a bit with ZIO, as well as directly comparing two very similar implementations where one is using ZIO and one is using vanilla Scala.
If you are new to sbt I recommend just running all the examples from Intellij. Also you will have to install SBT, follow the instructions here.
You will need to have read something on what the ZIO type is, and what a ZLayer is. E.g. Go to the links and look at the examples. Then you can experiment with the code available in this repo.
Start out in the hello-world package, or if you are feeling adventurous, go straight to the
hello-service package. NOTE that each package has it's own README.md file with
some notes about each package.
Also, if you think there is another comparison you would like to try, or if you have an idea to simplify the code, or would like to add a clarifying comment, please feel free to create a PR!
