About
The System.Threading.Channels library provides types for passing data asynchronously between producers and consumers.
Key Features
- 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
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);
