Here is a comparison of `asyncio` (Python), `async` (Ruby) and Go: https://github.com/socketry/async-await/tree/master/examples...

I wrote a similar article but for Ruby: https://www.codeotaku.com/journal/2018-06/asynchronous-ruby/...

Yes, it's a good model for many use cases.

One thing I wondered about Ruby, is it really necessary to have the `await` keyword?
