Stream documentation doesn't mention interop #1254

Documentation is missing

What is the issue?

If a brownfield application wants to adopt Effect and use its Streams abstraction, then it's likely that they'll need to interop with streams, and my guess is that they'll have

  1. Node.js streams
  2. Web-standard ReadableStream

Unfortunately the documentation doesn't mention either of these, which is pretty odd? It looks like there is a Stream.fromReadableStream() method, but it's undocumented.

My guess is that you'd interop Node.js streams to Effect Streams by using them as async generators, but there is no documentation for that either.

Where did you find it?
