This is the last release before PR #121 gets merged.
The highlight of the release is the provided cats.Parallel type-class instance for IO. This makes it now possible to process IO values in parallel, out of the box:
Simple sample:
import cats.implicits._
val name: IO[String] = getName(id)
val age: IO[Int] = getAge(id)
// Assuming `name` and `age` are asynchronous IOs, they'll
// get processed in parallel ...
(name, age).parMapN { (name, age) => Person(name, age) }Changes:
