Everything you (don't) want to know about async/await by Stefan Pölz

Описание: Talk is from the .NET Meetup Vienna from 4th November 2019
https://www.meetup.com/dotnet-austria...

Abstract:
Stefan has accumulated several years of professional experience with asynchronous programming and multithreading in .NET. He has helped crafting responsive applications and easy to use libraries by utilizing the power and brevity of async/await.

Moore's Law is considered obsolete for a couple of years now: Modern CPUs no longer significantly increase in their raw clock speed, but more and more raise their processing power by increasing the amount of cores/threads they have.
In order to benefit from those resources efficiently, .NET developers make use of the Task-based asynchronous pattern and the C# keywords async and await, while maintaining a high readability of the code.
Complementary topics in this code-heavy talk will be: continuations and SynchronizationContext, cooperative cancellation, progress reporting; while also covering the latest framework additions ValueTask, IAsyncEnumerable and IAsyncDisposable.
