What Hacker News says

3 sources
Propagation without needing to use boxed trait objects can also be accomplished using `anyhow`[1]/`eyre`[2], which have nice downcasting API’s for recovering the original error type if you know what the possibilites could be. I only bring it up because they aren’t mentioned until the end of the article and only in passing but they offer really nice features for attaching context and downcasting that makes up for the pseudo-type-erasure. 1: https://github.com/dtolnay/anyhow 2: https://github.com/yaahc/eyre
