flatMap

Signature

export declare const flatMap: {
  <Output, Output2>(f: (output: Output) => Prompt<Output2>): (self: Prompt<Output>) => Prompt<Output2>
  <Output, Output2>(self: Prompt<Output>, f: (output: Output) => Prompt<Output2>): Prompt<Output2>
}

  initialState: State,
  render: (
    prevState: Option<State>,
    nextState: State,
    action: Prompt.Action<State, Output>
  ) => Effect<string, never, Terminal>,
  process: (input: UserInput, state: State) => Effect<Prompt.Action<State, Output>, never, Terminal>
) => Prompt<Output>
