Comment on potentially similar work #3

I found this more popular library

https://github.com/rustedpy/result

Can we may be put a section in the README on how is this different or similar.

Thanks.

I like the concise focus of this library. There is another library that does provide exactly the same Result type (and some more), called koda.

The novelty with poltergeist is the catch decorator, which is missing from the above. I would celebrate if your work was combined with the above to get a small, type-safe result handling library. BTW, the reference to Rust is not necessarily needed, it could also be a reference to Haskell or other functional languages.

You mean it's missing from koda or rustedpy/result? It seems to be similar to as_result in result's:

No, I was just adding to the conversation of similar existing libraries.
