Mistakes you make using Kotlin Coroutines
Kotlin Coroutines offer a powerful, yet deceptively simple solution for managing asynchronous tasks. However, their ease of use can sometimes lead us into unforeseen pitfalls. From unexpected cancellations to perpetually running operations, developers often encounter bewildering behaviors that can affect application performance and reliability. In this presentation, we'll dive deep into the common mistakes made while using Kotlin Coroutines. We'll explore why these issues arise, how to diagnose them, and, most importantly, how to resolve them effectively. Expect to walk away with advanced insights and practical strategies to harness the full potential of coroutines in your Kotlin applications, ensuring they're robust, efficient, and maintainable.
