028 * A {@link ListenableFuture} that supports fluent chains of operations. For example:
029 *
030 * <pre>{@code
031 * ListenableFuture<Boolean> adminIsLoggedIn =
032 *     FluentFuture.from(usersDatabase.getAdminUser())
033 *         .transform(User::getId, directExecutor())
034 *         .transform(ActivityService::isLoggedIn, threadPool)
035 *         .catching(RpcException.class, e -> false, directExecutor());
036 * }</pre>
037 *
038 * <h3>Alternatives</h3>
039 *
040 * <h4>Frameworks</h4>
041 *
042 * <p>When chaining together a graph of asynchronous operations, you will often find it easier to
043 * use a framework. Frameworks automate the process, often adding features like monitoring,
044 * debugging, and cancellation. Examples of frameworks include:
045 *
046 * <ul>
047 *   <li><a href="http://google.github.io/dagger/producers.html">Dagger Producers</a>
048 * </ul>
049 *
050 * <h4>{@link java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture} / {@link java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage}
051 * </h4>
052 *
053 * <p>Users of {@code CompletableFuture} will likely want to continue using {@code
054 * CompletableFuture}. {@code FluentFuture} is targeted at people who use {@code ListenableFuture},
055 * who can't use Java 8, or who want an API more focused than {@code CompletableFuture}. (If you
056 * need to adapt between {@code CompletableFuture} and {@code ListenableFuture}, consider <a
057 * href="https://github.com/lukas-krecan/future-converter">Future Converter</a>.)
058 *
059 * <h3>Extension</h3>
060 *
061 * If you want a class like {@code FluentFuture} but with extra methods, we recommend declaring your
062 * own subclass of {@link ListenableFuture}, complete with a method like {@link #from} to adapt an
063 * existing {@code ListenableFuture}, implemented atop a {@link ForwardingListenableFuture} that
064 * forwards to that future and adds the desired methods.
065 *
066 * @since 23.0
