Understanding `Context.Tag`, `Context.GenericTag`, and `Effect.Tag` Differences
Whats the difference between
:
Context.Tag
Context.Tag
,
Context.GenericTag
Context.GenericTag
, and
Effect.Tag
Effect.Tag
? The only difference I can decipher is that with
Context.Tag
Context.Tag
and
Effect.Tag
Effect.Tag
you get opaque types because they are classes
?
