+## Added New Integration: **effilManager**
+
+Another option for multithreading support, works just like all the other threading integrations, but uses the internals of effil and it's unique features.
+- Refer to this [doc](https://www.lua.org/wshop18/Kupriyanov.pdf) to read more about it.
+- Project github [page](https://github.com/effil/effil/tree/master).

 ## Added New Integration: **priorityManager**
 
 Allows the user to have multi auto set priorities (Requires chronos). Also adds the functionality to create your own runners (multi:mainloop(), multi:umanager()) that you can set using the priority manager. Even if you do not have `chronos` installed all other features will still work!
