Description

To keep it short: there are a ton of libraries that are built on top of Cats Effect that some people already use, but don't have much exposure, so it's hard for other people to find them. There is a list of related libraries in the README, but it's ridiculously bare and doesn't really do the ecosystem justice. We should try to maintain a comprehensive list of libraries in the new documentation site, possibly split out into different sections.
