+title: Managing resources
+description: How to use .manage() to register effection resources with thunks/api
+---
+
+# Managed resources ✅
+
+`starfx` supports managing Effection `resource`s and exposing them via a `Context` using the `.manage()` helper on `thunks` (from `createThunks`) and `api` (from `createApi`). The `manage` call will start the resource inside the scope and return a `Context` you can `get()` or `expect()` inside your operations to access the provided value.
+
+A `resource` is useful in encapsulating logic or functionality. It is particularly useful for managing connections such as a WebSocket connections, Web Workers, auth or telemetry. These processes can be wired up, including failure, restart and shutdown logic, and then used in any of your actions. See the [`effectionx` repo](https://github.com/thefrontside/effectionx) for published packages which implement an effection `resource` and also serve as good examples. Resources are only available in the thunk or api managing it.
+
+## Example
+
+This is a contrived resource, but demonstrates the implementation and use of a resource.
+
+```ts
+import { resource } from "effection";
+
+function guessAge(): Operation<{ guess: number; cumulative: number | null }> {
+  return resource(function* (provide) {
+    let cumulative: number | null = 0;
+    try {
+      // this wouldn't be valuable per se, but demonstrates how the functionality is exposed
+      yield* provide({
+        get guess() {
+          const n = Math.floor(Math.random() * 100);
+          if (cumulative !== null) cumulative += n;
+          return n;
+        },
+        get cumulative() {
+          return cumulative;
+        },
+      });
+    } finally {
+      // cleanup when the resource is closed
+      cumulative = null;
+    }
+  });
+}
+```
+
+Manage the resource:
+
+```ts
+// With `createThunks` (the pattern is the same for `createApi`):
+const thunks = createThunks();
+const GuesserCtx = thunks.manage("guesser", guessAge());
+
+// inside an operation (thunk, middleware, etc.)
+const action = thunks.create("do-thing", function* (ctx, next) {
+  // use the managed resource inside an action
+  const g = yield* GuesserCtx.get(); // may return undefined
+  const g2 = yield* GuesserCtx.expect(); // will throw if resource is not available
+
+  console.log(g2.guess, g2.cumulative);
+  yield* next();
+});
+```
