𝗖# 𝗲𝘅𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: 𝗘𝗶𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 ⚖️ Either in C# is a small idea with a big payoff: a method returns one of two outcomes, usually success or error, without pushing expected failures into exceptions. 🧩 That makes control flow clearer, contracts more honest, and error handling impossible to ignore. 🛠️ Either fits especially well in validation, domain logic, and application services where failure is part of normal behavior. 💡 Cleaner APIs, fewer surprises, and more predictable code — that is why many teams adopt it. #dotnet #csharp #functionalprogramming #either #softwareengineering #backend #cleancode #aspnetcore #programming #developers

Why this post? What are the downsides of using Either? For failures, isn't some Result type better, more specific than Either?
