Kotlin Coroutines Tutorial, Part 1: Suspend Functions, Coroutine Scopes, Async and More

Written form: https://blog.rockthejvm.com/kotlin-co...
Complete Kotlin course: https://rockthejvm.com/p/kotlin-essen...

In this video, we explore coroutines and structured concurrency in Kotlin. We talk about what Kotlin coroutines are, how they work, how they are different from regular threads, blocking computations, and how we can run suspend functions. We also discuss coroutine scopes and controlling the sequence and structure of parallel/concurrent computations with coroutines (structured concurrency).

Contents:

4:12 running coroutines
9:02 coroutine scopes
14:45 structured concurrency
20:19 returning values from coroutines
