  • protoactor-go

  • Quasar

    Fibers, Channels and Actors for the JVM (by puniverse)

    Project mention: Java 21 makes me like Java again | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-16

    Java 21 doesn't retrofit green threads though. Quasar [0] is a library that implemented fibers for Java and the main developer pron has joined the OpenJDK development team. All that was necessary for first party support is to make the JDK libraries yield when blocking.

    Adopting async isn't impossible at all, there is very little demand for it.

    Project mention: Spinkube: Running WASM in Kubernetes | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-14

    This reminds me of Lunatic [1], an Erlang-inspired runtime for WebAssembly. Unfortunately it seems like development stalled some months ago.

    Project mention: Is Parallel Programming Hard, and, If So, What Can You Do About It? v2023.06.11a | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-06-14

    https://github.com/Hopac/Hopac is such an impressive piece of software. Too bad it never really took off like it deserved but with more popular competition like rx or just tasks/async (which is enough for most stuff) pretty unavoidable.
