05/27/2020, 4:58 PMIs there a function somewhere to convert from an exception-based flow (eg. Requests from Ktor) to an Either-based flow?
I guess there's always the option to try-catch and create the Either myself, but from what you guys I've done so far, there's probably some nice syntax sugar ^^
