  • Best practices
  • Don’t use async with an immediate await
  • Use awaitAll
  • Suspending functions should be safe to call from any thread
  • Use Dispatchers.Main.immediate instead of Dispatchers.Main
  • Remember to use yield in heavy functions
  • Understand that suspending functions await completion of their children
  • Understand that Job is not inherited: it is used as a parent
  • Don’t break structured concurrency
  • Use SupervisorJob when creating CoroutineScope
  • Consider cancelling scope children
  • Before using a scope, consider under which conditions it is cancelled
  • Don’t use GlobalScope
  • Avoid using Job builder, except for constructing a scope
  • Functions that return Flow should not be suspending
  • Prefer a suspending function instead of Flow when you expect only one value
  • Exercise solutions
