A crash course of async await (Swift Concurrency) - Shai Mishali - Swift Heroes 2022

See Shai's full presentation from Swift Heroes, 7-8 April, hosted in Turin and also broadcast globally.
In this session you'll learn about one of the biggest buzz words in Software Development, and one of the most awaited (pun intended) features of the Swift world - async/await, also known as Swift Concurrency.
Using Swift Concurrency resolves many of the hurdles of more traditional methods of handling concurrency work such as closures (and callback hell), publishers/observables, etc. Letting you write code that feels synchronous and natural to read, but works asynchronously; making extremely complex asynchronous flows simple.
You'll learn:
What is this async/await thing?!
Why do we need another concurrency model?
What are the problems async/await solves?
How async/await works behind the hood?
The different types related to modern Swift Concurrency: Tasks, Continuations, Actors, etc.
How does UIKit and SwiftUI play with Swift Concurrency ?
How can I bring async/await into my own (possibly legacy) code-base, quickly?
This is going to be a code-heavy talk which will get you on the right track to using the latest and greatest Swift Concurrency features in your code base as soon as you leave the conference!

Excellent presentation, very clear! Also, I was amazed at the slides themselves, the torch and the animation between code that preserves texts that remain the same. Could anybody point to a tutorial on how to do this?

Very good talk, speaker was really good. Unfortunately, the ebook link shared at the end of the video does not work, any chance to fix it?

[@newsonic24]

That was only for the conference attendees I think. They are not gonna giveaway books for everyone.

Great talk! I’m still using GCD with callbacks though. All those Tasks, Actors, AsyncSequences and stuff like that are extremely hard to understand…

👏👏

The video covers a lot of aspects but explain nothing particular

[@ConfidentlyRong-jo5yt]

I don't think it's the video mate.

That's how a crash course is
