Summary

With this, we’ve covered all the topics of this book. With the upcoming improvements of C++23, coroutines and their evolution will be analyzed more and more, especially in the system programming domain – and applied there, of course. Although complex to understand at first, coroutines allow you to continue sharpening the usage of C++ and give you one more instrument to enhance code.

In this chapter, you learned how to apply them in your concurrent applications, but their usefulness is far greater. We are excited about what comes next. We expect the modules language feature, which we didn’t cover in this book – intentionally – to be fully covered by the compilers and be broadly applied. Another interesting feature is std::generator – a view for the synchronous creation of coroutines in C++23. Stackful coroutines in C++26 are going to be a splendid system programming technique. In that version, you will also be able to obtain and visualize...
