04/19/2020, 10:32 PMIs it possible to do cooperative cancellation with just the standard lib? I know kotlinx.coroutines offers APIs for this. But I’m wondering if there’s basic support in the standard lib directly. I haven’t seen anything so far. I’m trying to avoid using kotlinx if possible due to JS bundle size concerns.
