Zone Motivation

Make writing asynchronous code easier by having a consistent way of propagating "context" across related asynchronous operations. Have the "context" be responsible for async-local-storage, allowing the execution before and after hooks, and "context"-local error handling. Finally make sure that the "context"s are composable.

This feature needs to be part of the platform so that library and framework authors can relay on a common well know API, otherwise adoption will be limited.

TLDR

I have not seen prelease versions utilized pre-1.0.0. It seems fairly pointless since the public API is not finalized yet. They become useful after 1.0.0 is released.

So when are prelease versions useful?

From semver.org:

Version 1.0.0 defines the public API. The way in which the version number is incremented after this release is dependent on this public API and how it changes.

Crugo WebRTC - Phase 1

For phase 1, only 2 users can video / audio chat at the same time in Crugo. This will eventually be developed to allow multiple user video / audio chat.

Brief Description - UX / UI

User A goes to the direct tag of User B and presses the call button. User A is presenting with a calling UI. User B received that call and is shown the being called UI. User B Then presses answer. At this stage both User A and User B are taken into the video chat UI. WebRTC does its thing and the call is initialised.

How it Works
