// Compile-time guarantees
Either<ErrorSchema, SearchResponseSchema> result = await searchFn.search(...);

// No more:
// - Null checks
// - Runtime type casts
// - Unhandled errors

result.fold(
  (error) {
    // Structured error with:
    // - error.code (enum)
    // - error.category (enum)
    // - error.title (string)
    // - error.message (string)
    // - error.endpoint (string)
    // - error.cause (optional)

# Backend returns:

  'data': {...} | 'error': {...}
}

# Client automatically parses to Either<ErrorSchema, T>

1. Identify functions using old AppFunction<T> pattern
2. Update type parameters to AppFunction<ErrorSchema, ResponseSchema>
3. Add fromJson getter for response deserialization
4. Update return types from T? to Either<ErrorSchema, T>
5. Update call sites to use .fold() instead of null checks

Before:

final result = await searchFn.search(queryStr: 'test');
if (result == null || result.isError) {
  showError('Search failed');
  return;
}
processResults(result.parse());

After:

final result = await searchFn.search(queryStr: 'test');
result.fold(
  (error) => showError(error.message),
  (data) => processResults(data.results),
);

when(mockService.executeCallable<Schema>(
  functionName: any,
  fromJson: any,
  args: any,
)).thenAnswer((_) async => Right(successData));

when(mockService.executeCallable<Schema>(
  functionName: any,
  fromJson: any,
  args: any,
)).thenAnswer((_) async => Left(errorSchema));

1. ✅ Test with real Firebase backend
2. ✅ Migrate remaining functions (one at a time)
3. ✅ Update UI code to use Either pattern

1. Create more example functions for common patterns
2. Add integration tests with Firebase emulator
3. Update team documentation with new patterns

1. Remove deprecated classes (GeneralSearchResults, AppFunctionError)
2. Consider stream-based functions with Either pattern
3. Add retry logic helpers for transient errors

final result = await SearchFunction.general(
  searchType: SearchFunctionType.dare,
  sortType: SearchSortType.recent,
).search(queryStr: 'test');

result.fold(
  (error) => handleError(error),
  (data) => showResults(data.results),
);

final result = await StripeRefreshAccountFunction().refresh(
  uid: userId,
  stripeAccountId: accountId,
  accountType: StripeAccountType.express,
);

result.fold(
  (error) => showStripeError(error),
  (data) => updateAccount(data),
);
