I love the enthusiasm but Asio has 1,537 dependencies, give or take.... we need to set our sights a bit lower :)

To be fair, Niall and I already discussed that it's relatively straightforward to just reimplement Asio. Because Safe C++ is a post-C++20 world, it makes more sense to simply just rewrite Asio and only code it against coroutines. The universal async model was a cool idea at the time but didn't catch on like we would've hoped. I've actually implemented safe networking in Rust, it's easy for me to implement it in Safe C++ as well. - Christian
