What Are Coroutines?

Asynchronous programming has always been challenging in the Java ecosystem. Traditional approaches like callbacks lead to "callback hell," while threading models introduce complexity with synchronization and resource management. Kotlin coroutines offer a elegant solution that combines the simplicity of sequential code with the efficiency of asynchronous execution.

Consider:

fun main() = runBlocking {
    println("Starting...")
    val result = fetchData() // This looks synchronous but isn't blocking
    println(result)
    println("Finished!")
}
