Anyone know if there are any plan for Kotlin to support async await as well as coroutines, swift uses async await and C# has had it for a long time, async await is fairly easy to understand and keeps code clean, it would be great if it came to Kotlin so we could use the same paradigm in swift and kotlin

Do you mean Swift interoperability? Kotlin has

suspend

language support, which needs this https://github.com/Kotlin/kotlinx.coroutines library

No I was meaning support for the async await keywords to allow you to run async code while writing the code in a synchronous fashion.

do {
        let result = try await getInvites(loggedOnUserId)
        invitesEnvironmentObject.replace(invites: result)
      } catch {

        showExceptionModal = true
      }

In swift I can write to call an async method

In Kotlin,

async

is called

suspend

.

You can get short comparison and contrast with C# approach here https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=hb0hfHVWCS0

I can do async code through coroutines, but I think that is a different approach than how C# and Swift do async await

Roman's KotlinConf videos detail why Kotlin uses another approach compared to C#. I highly recommend watching them to get a bigger picture.

perfect thanks for the link that clears things up
