Is this the best learning experience going forward, considering it has managed effects -- is that the direction roc platforms will move towards? Or should I switch over to using basic cli, or is it just personal preference?
Luke Boswell (Dec 04 2022 at 19:50):basic-cli was recently upgraded to simplify the API and Program was removed. This means you just return an effect back to the host now. I would guess that starting with basic-cli is better for learning as you can use more functionality to build things.
