Arrow has multiple libraries available for functional programming. In this talk we'll focus on Arrow FX and learn how to handle IO in a functional way with an introduction to monadic composition. Then we'll examine how to compose monads in a cleaner fashion with Arrow FX's monad comprehensions. Finally, we'll take a look at how to parallelize IO monads with parallel map strategies.

Your Kotlin app grabs data from an API, transforms it and saves the processed data in a database. However, there are so many things that could go wrong at runtime treat your impure functions as computations with context, pass them around just like other values, and make the necessary unsafe invocation from a single point of your app, your main function.
