+### `stream.compose(...streams)`
+<!-- YAML

+-->
+
+* `streams` {Stream[]|Iterable[]|AsyncIterable[]|Function[]}
+* Returns: {stream.Duplex}
+
+Combines two or more streams into a `Duplex` stream that writes to the
+first stream and reads from the last. Each provided stream is piped into
+the next, using `stream.pipeline`. If any of the streams error then all
+are destroyed, including the outer `Duplex` stream.
+
+Because `stream.compose` returns a new stream that in turn can (and
+should) be piped into other streams, it enables composition. In contrast,
+when passing streams to `stream.pipeline`, typically the first stream is
+a readable stream and the last a writable stream, forming a closed
+circuit.
+
+If passed a `Function` is must be a factory method taking a `source`
+`Iterable`.
+
+```mjs
+import { compose, Transform } from 'stream';
+
+const removeSpaces = new Transform({
+  transform(chunk, encoding, callback) {
+    callback(null, String(chunk).replace(' ', ''));
+  }
+});
+
+async function* toUpper(source) {
+  for await (const chunk of source) {
+    yield String(chunk).toUpperCase();
+  }
+}
+
+let res = '';
+for await (const buf of compose(removeSpaces, toUpper).end('hello world')) {
+  res += buf;
+}
+
+console.log(res); // prints 'HELLOWORLD'
+```
+
+`stream.compose` can be used to convert async iterables, generators and
+functions into streams.
+
+* `AsyncIterable` converts into a readable `Duplex`.  Cannot yield
+  `null`.
+* `AsyncGeneratorFunction` converts into a readable/writable transform `Duplex`.
+  Must take a source `AsyncIterable` as first parameter. Cannot yield
+  `null`.
+* `AsyncFunction` converts into a writable `Duplex`. Must return
+  either `null` or `undefined`.
+
+```mjs
+import { compose } from 'stream';
+import { finished } from 'stream/promises';
+
+// Convert AsyncIterable into readable Duplex.
+const s1 = compose(async function*() {
+  yield 'Hello';
+  yield 'World';
+}());
+
+// Convert AsyncGenerator into transform Duplex.
+const s2 = compose(async function*(source) {
+  for await (const chunk of source) {
+    yield String(chunk).toUpperCase();
+  }
+});
+
+let res = '';
+
+// Convert AsyncFunction into writable Duplex.
+const s3 = compose(async function(source) {
+  for await (const chunk of source) {
+    res += chunk;
+  }
