| | | **NOTE OF OBSOLESCENCE** -- The author of this project recommends you avoid its use if possible. The |
| | | original version of this module targeted nodejs v0.1.x in early 2011 when JavaScript on the server |
| | | looked a lot different. Since then |
| | | [async/await](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/async_function), |
| | | [Promises](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Promise), |
| | | and |
| | | [Generators](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Generator) |
| | | were standardized and the ecosystem as a whole has moved in that direction. |
| | | |
| | | I'll continue to support newer versions of nodejs as long as possible but v8 and nodejs are |
| | | extraordinarily complex and dynamic platforms. It is inevitable that one day this library will |
| | | abruptly stop working and no one will be able to do anything about it. |
| | | |
| | | I'd like to say thank you to all the users of fibers, your support over the years has meant a lot to |
| | | me. |
| | | |
| | | **Update** *[April 13th, 2021]* -- Fibers is not compatible with nodejs v16.0.0 or later. Unfortunately, v8 |
| | | commit [dacc2fee0f](https://github.com/v8/v8/commit/dacc2fee0f815823782a7e432c79c2a7767a4765) is a breaking |
| | | change and workarounds are non-trivial. |
