@Deactivated User The prototype code for cancellable coroutines is here: https://github.com/elizarov/CancellableCoroutinesPlayground/tree/master/src
In this codebase you can do stuff like this inside your coroutines:

withTimeout(1000L) { … do some suspending stuff here … }

and it’ll throw CancellationException if that stuff takes longer than timeout. It nests to any depth. There is a version of await() that supports cancellation. There is also a suspendCancellableCoroutine utility function (that returns you a CancellableContinuation) that lets you easily write your own cancellable suspending functions.
