💖 thread...:scalar(3pm) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the little manpage that's part of the Perl fam (manual section 3pm, if you're keeping score) 🎀

---

✨ NAME ✨

so this whole thing is threads::shared::scalar — it's literally the default class for tie-ing scalars to threads with forks 🦋

(and yes, the page itself is filed under thread...:scalar(3pm), dw, it's the same vibe 💅)

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so, it's a helper class for forks::shared. that's it. that's the whole paragraph.

if you want the actual tea, go read the docs over there 👉 forks::shared. this page is just like the cute little side character that shows up to make the main character look good 💀
