Keynote: Delimited Continuations, Demystified by Alexis King | Lambda Days 2023

Although delimited continuations are not a new idea, they have recently seen renewed interest from several programming language communities as a powerful tool for implementing schedulers and effect systems.

Unfortunately, there is a major remaining obstacle to their adoption, namely that most programmers find them utterly opaque. To help fix that, this talk provides an overview of what delimited continuations are, how they work, and why they’re useful from a perspective accessible to the working programmer.
