SUMMARY:Introduction to Zig's new async I/O
DTSTAMP:20260430T144231Z
DTSTART:20260522T141000Z
DESCRIPTION:Description:\nIt happens very often that developers are tasked 
	with creating programs that can do more than one thing at a time. In recen
	t years\, "async/await" has become the main set of primitives provided by 
	most mainstream programming languages to make this possible. \n\nIn this t
	alk\, Loris Cro will show how Zig recently re‑implemented its entire I/O s
	tack from scratch in order to provide developers with an I/O implementatio
	n that decouples asynchrony from concurrency – giving Zig developers the a
	bility to reuse code across different concurrency models in a way that has
	 never been seen before.\n\nZig is a new low-level programming language th
	at some consider the spiritual successor of C for its focus on simplicity 
	and its toolchain that integrates seamlessly with C/C++ projects. No prior
	 knowledge of Zig is necessary to follow this talk which will also feature
	 code snippets from other mainstream programming languages. Anyone who use
	s concurrency in their day job and is curious about how these systems oper
	ate behind the scenes will find something of interest in this talk. \n----
