Hi, it does not have a lot on multi-threading. There’s only a single example on how to start a thread. The focus is more on understanding the core features of the language. There’s an especially strong focus on memory management.

Fair enough! Just wanted to check before I hit the buy button. :) Do you know of any good resources for diving deeper into multithreading in Odin?

I think this is the first odin book, I have seen, unless maybe you check the docs.

There aren’t any great multi-threading guides yet! I just made a super basic threading example: https://github.com/odin-lang/examples/blob/master/thread/basics/thread_basics.odin

However, I’d like to make something bigger too, perhaps something similar to a job system or such.

One thing you can look at is Jakub’s “jobs” repository: https://github.com/jakubtomsu/jobs

Awesome, thanks! Will keep those in my back pocket.

Coming from managed langs (mostly JS runtimes), threads are still something of a new concept, so just need a bit of a runway to get me going.
