Explore the Boost.Fiber library in this comprehensive conference talk from CppNow. Dive into fine-grained concurrency within a single thread, learning how to efficiently utilize CPU resources while fibers await asynchronous results. Discover how to write and maintain simple sequential code that behaves like asynchronous I/O concurrency. Get an overview of the library, understand its integration with event-driven frameworks, and examine useful patterns including load-balancing work among thread pools. Learn how this library can simplify maintenance of application logic structured as callback chains or then() calls. Access accompanying slides for visual reference and deeper understanding of the concepts presented.
