coroutines & JVM/JavaScript:

as far is I understood it, you'd start a coroutine in a JVM environment using runBlocking if you are not hooking into an event loop engine and use the IO or Default Dispatchers

how do coroutines integrate with the async infrastructure in JS?

[Sam]

On JS, the default dispatcher is the same as the main dispatcher, and dispatches coroutines on the browser's main event loop.

[Bernhard]

so just GlobalScope.launch the root of your application?

[Sam]

Even better, use a suspending main function

[Bernhard]

oh, that makes sense, thank you

For jvm suspend main also works
