        [`concurrent.futures`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html) is amazing, but it's got some sharp edges that have bit me many times in the past.
        
        Futureproof is a thin wrapper around it addressing some of these problems and adding some usability features.
        
        ## Features:
        
        - **Monitoring**: a summary of completed tasks is logged by default.
        - **Fail fast**: errors cause the main thread to raise an exception and stop by default.
        - **Error policy**: the user can decide whether to raise, log or completely ignore errors on tasks.
        - **Backpressure control**: large collections of tasks are consumed lazily as the executor completes tasks, drastically reducing memory consumption and improving responsiveness in these situations.

        ## Current status: Alpha
        
        The API is subject to change.
        
        Currently only tested as a wrapper for ThreadPoolExecutor and Python 3.7.
