Project Loom significantly enriches our development toolbox: we get an asynchronous runtime with direct syntax, plus a set of low-level APIs for structured concurrency.

Using these basic building blocks, what else might a developer do than use them to build a developer-friendly, Loom-focused concurrency library? Let's see how this might play out. Expect a lot of code!

We'll use Scala, a flexible, functional language ideally suited to define elegant abstractions. 

We'll also look at how the Loom structured concurrency approach compares to `Future`-based programming and functional effect systems in terms of safety, developer experience, "reactiveness", type-level guarantees, and other properties.
