Overview
ki is a lightweight structured-concurrency library inspired by many other projects and blog posts:
- libdill
- trio
- Kotlin coroutines
- Notes on structured concurrency, or: Go statement considered harmful
- Structured Concurrency in High-level Languages
- Update on Structured Concurrency
- Two Approaches to Structured Concurrency
- libdill: Structured Concurrency for C
A previous version of ki also included a mechanism for soft-cancellation/graceful shutdown, which took inspiration
from:
- Go Concurrency Patterns: Context
- .NET 4 Cancellation Framework
- Timeouts and cancellation for humans
- Graceful Shutdown
However, this feature was removed (perhaps temporarily) because the design of the API was unsatisfactory.
