## About
<!-- A description of the package and where one can find more documentation -->
The `System.Threading.Channels` library provides types for passing data asynchronously between producers and consumers.
## Key Features
<!-- The key features of this package -->
* Abstractions representing channels for one or more producers to publish data to one or more consumers
* APIs focused on asynchronous production and consumption of data
* Factory methods for producing multiple kinds of channels
## How to Use
<!-- A compelling example on how to use this package with code, as well as any specific guidelines for when to use the package -->
```C#
using System;
using System.Threading.Channels;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
Channel<int> channel = Channel.CreateUnbounded<int>();
Task producer = Task.Run(async () =>
{
int i = 0;
while (true)
{
channel.Writer.TryWrite(i++);
await Task.Delay(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(1));
}
});
Task consumer = Task.Run(async () =>
{
await foreach (int value in channel.Reader.ReadAllAsync())
{
Console.WriteLine(value);
}
});
await Task.WhenAll(producer, consumer);
```
