Visual Studio Async aims to make asynchronous programming more approachable so code is as easy to write and maintain as with synchronous code Microsoft is fitting its Visual Basic and C# languages ...

There's a lot of confusion about async/await, Task/TPL and asynchronous and parallel programming in general, so Jeremy Clark is on a mission to inform developers on how to use everything properly.
