# Effect Client Wrapper Pattern

Make an outside SDK behave like the rest of your Effect code

## What this does

You are writing with Effect and need to call a library that was not built for it, like a payments or email SDK. This is a repeatable pattern for wrapping that client so its errors, tracing and wiring look like everything else you write. Reach for it the first time an outside SDK comes into the codebase.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Wrap a promise-based SDK as an Effect service
- Get typed errors out of a third-party client
- Hand a wrapped client to the code that needs it

## About Effect Client Wrapper Pattern

A pattern for wrapping third-party SDK clients with Effect, the kind with promise-based APIs. Stripe, Resend and AWS are the sort of client it has in mind.

What the wrapping gives you is type-safe error handling, automatic tracing, and dependency injection through the "use" pattern.
