 There is a wide variety of continuous integration software which provide different features. Pricing plans might be for free if your project is open-sourced.
 [Jenkins](https://jenkins.io/) is a good option if you have a local server at your disposal, on the other hand [Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org/) is also a recommended choice if you plan to use a cloud-based continuous integration service.
 
+### Use Coroutines in Kotlin
+
+A coroutine is a concurrency design pattern that you can use on Android to simplify code that executes asynchronously. [Coroutines](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/coroutines/coroutines-guide.html) were added to Kotlin in version 1.3 and are based on established concepts from other languages.
+On Android, coroutines help to manage long-running tasks that might otherwise block the main thread and cause your app to become unresponsive. Over 50% of professional developers who use coroutines have reported seeing increased productivity.
