//! Example: Coroutines!
//! --------------------
//!
//! Coroutines are an awesome way to write concurrent code. Dioxus heavily leverages coroutines to make sense of complex
//! ongoing asynchronous tasks. The async scheduler of Dioxus supports both single-threaded and multi-threaded coroutines,
//! so you can drop in code to run across multiple threads without blocking the main thread.
//!
//! Dioxus cannot simply abstract away the threading model for the web, unfortunately. If you want to use "web threads"
//! you either need to limit support for Chrome, or you need to use a Web Workers and message passing. This is easy enough
//! to do in your own code, and doesn't require 1st-party support from Dioxus itself.
//!
//! UseState and friends work fine with coroutines, but coroutines might be easier to use with the Dirac global state
//! management API. This lets you easily drive global state from a coroutine without having to subscribe to the state.
//!
//! For now, this example shows how to use coroutines used with use_state.
//!
//!
//! ## What is a Coroutine?
//!
//! A coroutine is a function that can be paused and resumed. It can be paused internally through "await" or externally
//! using the `TaskHandle` API. Within a coroutine, you may execute asynchronous code, that modifies values captured when
//! the coroutine was initiated. `use_state` always returns the same setter, so you don't need to worry about
