Upgrade to fp-ts 2

[steida]

Do you plan it or should userland send a PR? I know the company which maybe will desperately need it.

[gcanti]

Yes I do (as soon as I understand how to use the new bigint type introduced in TypeScript 3.2)

I too am investigating alternative libraries for currency manipulation. I tried money-ts some months ago and found the incompatibility with fp-ts 2 insurmountable. Here we are on the brink of fp-ts 3!

I haven't popped the hood to look at the internals yet but would value the ability to use this library highly. It sounds like there's some modernization required, in terms of bigint as well as the fp-ts peer dependency. What would be the best way to help?

@EricCrosson did you ever find a proper substitute for this library?

[EricCrosson]

No @ryanleecode I have not. I did "start" a tiny (unpublished) version locally for a project but it is still in a rough state.
