Asynchronous Streams for Icicle
===============================

[](#asynchronous-streams-for-icicle)

This library is a component for [Icicle](https://github.com/icicleio/icicle), providing an asynchronous readable, writable, and seekable stream interfaces and a couple basic stream implementations. Like other Icicle components, this library uses [Coroutines](https://icicle.io/docs/manual/coroutines/) built from [Awaitables](https://icicle.io/docs/manual/awaitables/) and [Generators](http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.generators.overview.php) to make writing asynchronous code more like writing synchronous code.
