02/22/2018, 5:21 PM@david.bilik @jw AFAIK coroutine support is available in the Kotlin/Native compiler. It's just the kotlinx.coroutines library that's missing. Which in theory shouldn't stop you from playing with coroutines on iOS (albeit makes it much harder).

02/22/2018, 5:33 PMThat's fair. Actually I wouldn't even claim your statement to be wrong. From a regular developer perspective there are no coroutines in Kotlin/Native on iOS. In a sense that it is nearly impossible to use them - you'll need deep understanding of coroutines implementation details, iOS, and also write a considerable amount of nontrivial code. And I've heard Kotlin/Native doesn't work well with multithreading - so there are some actual limitations.
