Hey, all. 👋

Is there a platform agnostic CoroutineDispatcher (i.e. not Dispatchers.Main) that enforces a calling thread? I want to launch some tasks that return to the calling thread.

Not yet. There are no threads on JS except main, so you just cannot use any other.

Actually, I think my problem would be obviated in JS since there aren’t any threads. The issue I’m having is that I want to post back to the original coroutine context from another context.

Here’s the code in question; https://gist.github.com/pardom/de98c4e9489ba6ee6b1d49da4500fcdc#file-runtime-kt-L21

Perhaps this is something better accomplished with channels?
