## What it is
libgo is a stackful coroutine library with collaborative scheduling written in C++11, bringing Go-style concurrency to C++. It also provides parallel programming primitives like channels, co_mutex, co_rwmutex, and timers, and can hook synchronous third-party libraries to make them asynchronous.

## Use cases
- write go-style coroutines in c++
- make synchronous database clients like mysqlclient or hiredis asynchronous
- run millions of lightweight coroutines with low memory
- avoid thread-per-connection in high concurrency servers
- add channels and mutexes for cooperative multithreading in c++

## When to choose
- you want golang-like synchronous-looking code with async performance in C++
- you need to use synchronous DB drivers (MySQL, hiredis) in a high-concurrency async server without rewriting them
- you need massive coroutine counts with modest memory usage
- you target Linux, macOS, or Windows with C++11

## When to avoid
- you can use C++20 native coroutines or asio and prefer standard solutions
- your project is not on Linux, macOS, or Windows
- you need a library with active ongoing development and large community
- you only need simple threading without cooperative scheduling
