Hand-rolled, kettle-boiled, baked to perfection. Worth every minute at the bakery.
Summary
The article introduces 'c-asio,' a memory-safe C framework that combines c-raii, libuv, coroutines, and other concurrency primitives. It aims to provide the functionality of C++ boost.cobalt and boost.asio without the overhead, offering ease-of-use wrappers for libuv and high-level memory management. The framework simplifies callback handling with coroutine support, returning results automatically to the caller.

· 3 pulledA memory safe focus C framework, combining c-raii, libuv, coroutine and other concurrency primitives.
This library provides ease of use convenience wrappers for libuv combined with the power of c-raii, a high level memory management library similar to other languages.
Like coroutine support, the otherwise needed callback, is now automatically back to the caller with results.
