Dear fellow Boost developers,
I am seeking endorsement for my C++20 async coroutine library boost.async.
It provides coroutine primitives & utilities that are easy to use and
intuitive,
to anyone who has seen python's asyncio or javascripts async/await APIs
before.
It simplifies using asio and increases compile times significantly by
encouraging
the usage of translations units. The features include:
- coroutine types (eager, lazy, generators)
- built-in cancellation
- synchronization of multiple coroutines (select, gather, join)
- channels
- with (an async scope akin to python's with expression)
- asio integration, i.e. completion tokens
I think this kind of library is much needed in boost and the wider C++
community.
