# Deferred

> **Warning**

>

> Deferred is deprecated in favor of Swift Concurrency. For migration hints, see [Migrating to Swift Concurrency](https://github.com/bignerdranch/Deferred/tree/develop/Documentation/Guide/Migrating%20to%20Swift%20Concurrency.md).

Deferred let you work with values that haven't been determined yet, like an array that's coming later (one day!) from a web service call. It was originally inspired by [OCaml's Deferred](https://ocaml.janestreet.com/ocaml-core/111.25.00/doc/async_kernel/#Deferred) library.

Deferred is a "futures library", probably like ones you've already heard about. Where Deferred aims to be different is by providing a small, efficient API that's easily adopted in our many [consulting projects](https://www.bignerdranch.com/work).
