Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I want to know how pypely compares to other libraries. What advantages or disadvantages does pypely have compared to these libraries

Describe the solution you'd like
I would like to know where to place pypely compared to:

• Pipe
• Fluentpy
• pipey
• toolz

Context

The package is providing the fork function. This function takes multiple functions and forwards the intermediate result to every of these functions. By this multiple independet branches are created that all consume the result of the previous pipeline step.

Description

Currently the fork function is executing the branches sequentially. It would be nice to have a version that is parallelizing these steps.

Hints

• A new module should provide a parallel version of fork. The new function should be imported by from pypely.parallel import parallel_fork
• It needs to guaranteed that the order of the result is kept. The order the functions are given in needs to reflect the order of their outputs.
• Take care about variable references. It might be reasonable to create a copy of the intermediate result.

It would be greate if a pipeline could be validated. A function for this should be added. This function should check if output and input of consecutive functions match.

This function should visualize a pipeline. Visualization could be in form of ascii art or a browser visualization.
